But your forgery had better be darn good because majors do care, and some of them audit books. And they have people who are good at it. Even more dangerous nowdays... internet is forever. That P-51 time you logged in N123YZ in CA on 19 Aug 2017? Well flightaware shows it was IFR in FL on that day...
When you are hiring hundreds to thousands of pilots a year, no one has time to inspect a logbook that closely. When someone is assigned to review a stack of logbooks, the flip to each tabbed checkride to see if there were any repeats and then look at maybe one or two other flights before they move on to the next one. Odds are the type of person that forges their logbook has personality traits that the interviewers will catch.
