What Would You Do With People Who Lied About Being Mentally Ill?

A bit of background here:

Somebody I know of has lied about being mentally ill for a long time. He thinks that by saying he has problems, people will have to be nice to him and be sympathetic/understanding.

He has used his fake condition to get a job and even a girlfriend.

The truth is, he is a manipulator and a user of people - once he has had use of you, he casts you aside.

He has never been tested for mental health issues, apparently he self medicates (with what, I don't know) and is prone to temper tantrums and outbursts when people question him.

I have not spoken with him in a long time, as I feel he is harmful to people who have genuine illnesses and more importantly want to get better.

Would you like to see liars like him behind bars, or do they need support even though they are douchebags?
