Let us also try to understand the other side of the coin. Every person, who wants to change his job, wants to do so because he wants to come up in life in terms of salary as well as designation. But most of the recruiters want to give him a salary based on his old one. Rather they should based it on the usefulness which the person will bring to them, once he joins.
I will illustrate this with example. Suppose I am working as a sub-sectional head at present and, through my intelligence, hard work, iniiative, enterprise and experience, have aquired the skills, qualifications and ability to handle the job of a departmental head. When I apply to a new company for the post of HOD, they test me in every manner and find me suitable for it.

Cyrus, I respect ur dilligence sir. But if u caught someone, the chance is, they're a newbie 2 fraudulence. A old hand using false bio data is pretty attrocious & near impossible to catch.

BUT if I was applying to ur company...and I was getting 10,000 Rs, and if I wanted 50k INR out of u, and decided fraud was the way 2 go, I'd buddy up as much as possible /w the HR heads in my first Co., and have it preplanned... I'd rep up not by doing a good project or a powerpoint, or completing stuff on time, but finding a weakness out of the 3 W's (wine, women, wealth) and using it on him to get a grip. Then what I dictate is what gets written, and u can do all the verifications u want, unless u are REALLY going to call up the CEO/ or the GM. Who'd probably be getting their 6'0'clocks grilled over 1001 project nights most likely.

Of course premature demise of ethics in Indians !!!!

The great indian mentality
they do not realize they will be caught
