The two cases from Israeli law discussed in this Haaretz article look like this: A man said he was a neurosurgeon.  Woman slept with him based on that. He wasn't.  Conviction. A man said he was a housing ministry official and would help them get better apartments.  He wasn't, and he didn't.  Conviction.  Both men were Israeli Jews. 

I'd say that lying about your job is basically on par with lying about your race or religion. While I don't doubt that there was a race/religion...
