I was working on the Cingular and ATT merger, my upper management asked me to fudge the numbers on roaming. I would gave the numbers in blue and orange, and blue (att) had better data handoffs on 3g. It made orange look so bad, (shitty network), they made me combine them, to which tanked ATT's network stats to the c-level.
One of many times, stats made someone look bad, and they made me change them.
Most the time, support metrics are altered to make it look like support contracts are hitting everything contractual.
This is daily business everywhere in tech. Mostly fudging to downright lying, just depends on the importance of the data if some mone is tied to it.
I don't approve of this shit, but lucky, I never been asked to commit fraud, like reporting sales that don't exist...

Luckily our board was pretty understanding the reduction in infrastructure strain took a nice percentage out of operating costs.
