Is it illegal to create a fake job offer letter for a pay raise or to obtain housing or a new job? (hexbear.net)

I’ve got a potential employer who I’m trying to strong arm into giving me an offer letter by telling them this other company also wants me. Is it illegal if I create a fake document to show them?

Illegal? Probably.* Unethical? Fuck no. Lie on your resume, lie on your housing application, lie to get a raise. The whole fucking system is trash, don't play by their rules.

Probably better to use a fake company though, your potential employer is probably going to google it and might even give them a call.

Fuck, do you really think it’s illegal? Really do not give a fuck about the ethics of it.

worst thing i think could happen is they somehow find out and they fire you. it's probably only illegal if youre trying to get into a licensed position, medical field, etc
