OPINION

ROGERS, Circuit Judge.

A jury convicted Ralph M. Daniel, Jr. (“Daniel”) of one count of wire fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1343. Daniel now appeals, arguing that there was insufficient evidence of a “scheme” to defraud, or of his intent to defraud, or of a wire communication in furtherance of the scheme. Daniel also contends that the district court erred by refusing to instruct the jury that it should acquit him if it had a reasonable doubt regarding whether he had intended to repay the money. Finding no merit to his claims, we affirm.
