You need a job, so anything goes. Your only objective is to get hired, and you should do anything you can to achieve that. Corporations do whatever they can to brutally weed out applicants, so it's perfectly fair to defend your application in any way you can, including flat-out lying. If they don't check you close enough, and you get by and get hired, that's on them.
