To file a DMCA complaint you must be the copyright holder, or authorized to act on their behalf.

  Yes, and it's only that assertion that is made under penalty of perjury, not the assertion that the targeted work actually infringes on that copyright.

    So, if they aren't the copyright holder (as in this case) they have committed perjury by asserting they are.

      Possibly not if they thought they had a valid claim, but I really don't know how that would work out in practice.
