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? Yes. Impractical? Well, that depends on the connections you have. If you have partners or associates willing to lie on your behalf, you can accomplish a whole lot.

It's not lying, it's marketing. That's different!

I argue it's as illegal as posting fake job postings

Maybe, but businesses don't need to face legal consequences like individuals do
