Employers using dishonest job titles

I've noticed in my job search that many employers are using job titles that don't match the actual job, most notably, sales jobs tend to be listed as customer service. I've had a few phone interviews now where I've had to stop the recruiter and tell them that they're describing a sales position, which is not what I applied for. Another interview I went to was for a warehouse forklift driver, only to find out during the interview that there is no warehouse and they're looking for someone to manage their rebar lot I've started to lie on applications because of this. If they're not going to be honest, why should I?
