Bullshit and BullshittersWe've had questions about lies and liars in the past, but this time we're asking about the sort of fantasist who constantly claims they've got a helicopter in the garden or was "second onto the balcony at the Iranian Embassy siege". Tell us about the cobblers you've been told, or the complete lies you've come out with.
Thanks to dozer for the suggestion

I once received a job applicationand the CV said this person had worked for a company which I happened to have been working for at the same time as he claimed to have, which I found a bit suspicious as I didn't remember him.
I therefore called a few old colleagues, and none of them remembered this person either.
Confronted with this on the phone, he initially claimed I must have forgotten him, before exclaiming that - Oh FFS! How could he have been so silly! He'd meant ANOTHER company and must have accidentally typed the wrong name.
I therefore phoned my mate who worked for the other company, who said they'd never heard of them either.
He didn't get the job. The oddest thing about it was that he didn't need anything like the experience he was claiming to have for the job anyway...
