Can confirm. I tested it out myself and created a bogus LinkedIn profile to match with it.

I got loads of recruiters to email me, wanting to have a chat.

My plan was to get free plane tickets and hotel to visit U.S, but I didn't find enough time to bullshit them before they actually invite me, but it seemed it's possible.

I'm below average programmer and from Europe. Probably I wouldn't have either attends the actual interview, lied something happened or go there and let them realize I'm shite. No, I wouldn't feel bad about it all if I'd have pulled it off.
