True, Anyone i suppose can lie on a resume (hey i'm a software engineer) but a recruiter should of done a more indepth background check on that seeker.. ie Reference check of last two businesses worked etc
Ask questions like: - What type of employee was he/she - What was their main role with your company - Do you consider him to have 2 years exp with languages XYZ etc Instead they ask: - Was he/she a nice person? - Did the get fired? Its one thing of a seeker lies on a resume, its easily caught out... but if he has mates from his last job etc lying for him then its a gamble.
