Sure they're different. Even Fredo may have refused the latter request. But you conveniently leave out the hook...which was that there was something in it for Fredo if he helped them out.
So, he helped them out. Regardless of the words they used to reel him it we can't get around the fact that Fredo did business with Roth & Ola. Behind Michael's back. He turned traitor.
And we DO know what was said to Fredo, because he later tells Michael at the boathouse what was said.
