I worked at a dot com and although I was fairly young at the time I was promoted quickly to management (we had several thousand employees at the time).
When it all came falling down and we were all looking at jobs at the sametime I was being asked by proespective employers “was John Smith really General Manager of customer service”?
The vast majority were customer service monkeys padding the fuck out of their resumes.
That said hate the game not the player. I always nodded and said yes.
Fuck em if they can’t do their own verification work.
I’m not an HR professional, by the grace of Jesus, but I believe the proper verification work is stop looking at all my private shit and pay me already.

inadvertently kickstarts Elizabeth Holmes promotion to CEO a job or two later :p j/k
btw curious what the proper verification work is. Thought calls were standard. Maybe pulling tax records if possible?
