Not only is it unethical, it is illegal (fraud).

Last year, an ex-lawyer was charged in court, fined and jailed. The hr department managed to discover that he faked his ex-company salary slip during job interview, and took the necessary actions.

Since your friend can't keep her mouth shut, she is running the same danger... ..

The industry is not big and companies do network at times.
Why ruin your career and life for this?
