You played the role of someone running a legitimate business, and then betrayed the investor trust. Unless you are saying you would build a legitimate business in real life and then steal from it, then you roleplayed in this game as someone other than your natural self.
You have a different view of roleplaying to me.
I associate it with make-believe, immersion and adopting a persona. You appear to see it as doing anything within a game. So we're not really talking about the same thing when we use the word.
I believe there's a distinction to be made between roleplaying as an evil character and compulsion.
On a beautiful summer day, I was playing BF2 on an obscure server that had little to no maintenance from admins (later it became my favorite server), when I noticed players complaining about getting teamkilled. The guy's name was LTyear (cant remember the exact year) and he immediately peaked my attention. An absolutely lousy player by any standards, I've killed him easily the very moment he approached me, though what he lacked in aiming skills, he compensated by sheer determination: no matter how many times he got killed, he kept coming and teamkilling unaware teammates. 
Speaking of my team, those idiots would not have been able to get anything done even if their lives depended on it, we were losing round after round.
At the beginning of the next round, I've sent a team message warning about the imperiousness of securing the central hill, an excellent vantage point that would later decided the outcome of the round. No one listened and despite my best efforts we lost.
I've picked the engineer kit, pointed the shotgun at the teammate closest to me and shot him. I immediately felt better, my anger slowly melted away only to be replaced by a sadistic pleasure as the second and third victim fell. At that point, even if I wanted to stop I couldn't. I've managed to convince LT that we were on the same side, and proceeded to eradicate our team. T'was one of the most intense and rewarding experience in my life. 
There was a problem though... a top player like me was way more effective than what LT had done so far and pretty soon the rest of the server population could no longer ignore our rampage. I did get LT's mail address though before the kick/ban vote was finalized. Haven't seen him again in the game though.
The best game to teamkill to your heart's content is BF BC2 though, simply because with the medic kit you can revive your victims and teamkill them again.
There's nothing like standing atop of your victim with the defibrillator, reviving him and in the next second one shooting him as he tries to run away.
