There is no way that will happen unless you actually said something 
seriously false, like you had a degree from somewhere you don't.  And even 
then they're likely not going to bother with any charges because they won't 
be bothered, they'll just sack you.  There is no way on this Earth they are 
going to start arguing with you about whether "built a comprehensive 
database backup script" is lying or not because it's only 20 lines long.
