I wouldn't lie with a specific number, but I would answer it with either one of these two options:
1. You're probably more aware of the market conditions than I am and I trust you to make me a competitive offer should we both agree this is a good match
2. I have an embarrassingly high compensation in my current role, and I am not comfortable in divulging it, because very few employers are able to match it and I'm not expecting them to
Both answers put the onus on the employer to put out their best offer possible, and any push back is basically a huge red flag.

If, however, your second reply *isn't* a lie you might as well tell them to signal your worth. However that's a privilege few emploees enjoy. Your first reply is a good option for msot of us.
