I receive many requests to verify if a Navy SEAL resume is fake and the vast majority turn out fraudulent. Writing the words "Navy SEAL" on a resume opens many doors for imposters seeking employment. The good news is the revised Stolen Valor Act specifically targets those fakes that seek a monetary gain from their false claims. Claiming to be a SEAL on a resume when that person is not is a violation of the Stolen Valor Act
Below are examples of the HUNDREDS of fake resumes I’ve verified.
