Lies I told on my CVI've not had to lie on my CV (resumé for all you 'merkins) for a while, but way back when I was a teenager and C was a cool programming language, I listed it as one of my skills.
My new boss was remarkably nice about me spending my first week's employment reading a "how to program in C" book.

Honestly LyingAs I've had several of my email to the BBC's website posted on the BBC's website (particularly the Magazine Monitor) my CV proudly proclaims that I have written for the BBC. It's a great conversation starter for interviews.
I also list my editorial and staff writing roles for a couple of gaming-related websites, although those aren't technically "paying jobs".
