Illegal? Probably.* Unethical? Fuck no. Lie on your resume, lie on your housing application, lie to get a raise. The whole fucking system is trash, don't play by their rules.
Probably better to use a fake company though, your potential employer is probably going to google it and might even give them a call.
*I am not a lawyer.
Fuck, do you really think it’s illegal? Really do not give a fuck about the ethics of it.
Who knows have you looked at the US Code? No one knows what is or isn't illegal, you need literal teams of lawyers and even then it comes down to the whims of some idiot in a robe.
I'm going to be honest I don't really know and I'm just guessing. Again, I'm not a lawyer lol. After a cursory google search I would amend that to "it depends on what you're lying about and who you're lying to." If it's not a government job you're probably fine.
But seriously anyone who knows more about this please call me a turbolib and correct me because I'm mostly just talking out of my ass.
I think the biggest risk in this situation is them saying "we can't match that so we rescind our offer" and you're shit out of luck.
