Example lie: I'm CCNA certified. 1.) Yes 2.) Yes (I'm hired) 3.) The company loses a government contract after finding out that I'm not actually CCNA certified, and the bid required all engineers on the project are CCNA certified (alternately, I completely screw up the routers and take the companies infrastructure out of the global routing tables) Basically, if the company relies on the lie to hire you, and then later suffers an injury from that lie, then a fraud has been committed. Note that it works both ways[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Employment_fraud https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Employment_fraud]
