As I said, if you get something, or hurt someone (I mean actually hurt - offending their sensibilites doesn't count), from the lie, then there are consequences. Fraud is one.
But if you're simply a lying attention-seeking braggart who goes around boasting that you [received a Medal of Honor] [cured cancer] [are worth $500MM] [saved 10,000 starving children], you're not a criminal and don't deserve to be. You're just a pathetic liar. (Or an Internet forum poster).
