Broadly speaking, modern laws across the world vary depending on the style of government. In most most modern representative democracies: It depends on where, in what circumstances, to whom and (if applicable), the subject of your falsities:
Lying in court, parliament or other government establishment under oath, is to commit perjury. A crime that can lead to a custodial sentence.
Lying to police, if it hampers their investigation of a crime, can lead to a charge of obstruction. Though such a charge is rare as the case would be a complex in relation to the gravity of the offence, certainly not as high as perjury.
Lying in order to obtain wealth can lead to a charge of fraud.
Lying so as to defame another: is not a crime, but may lead to a civil case of defamation; oft divided into libel (written) or slander (spoken). In such cases, loss must be proved by the defamed and claimed from the defamer.
In general terms, provided that you are not lying under oath, in order to obstruct police and emergency workers, to defraud or defame, there are few legal ramifications for lying.
Socially speaking, it is far easier to tell people that you don't wish to answer that question rather than generate a falsity in order to avoid giving an answer. You under absolutely no legal obligation for telling people to mind their own business, unless you find yourself under a judicial inquiry.
You are legally protected from having to answer questions from police officers, if there is need to lie then silence is definitely the best option.
If there are criminal court proceedings against you, typically you are no obligation to prove your innocence, therefore only a plea is necessary; therefore you are not required to give truthful testimony unless you opt to testify in your own defense.
So the legal ramifications for lying are there in some circumstances; under the ideologies of liberal principles and policies, you are protected from being forced to give information. But it should also be noted from an ethical standpoint, that giving false information can contribute to creating an erroneous perception of another: there have been cases where politicians have spread false information about an opposing candidate, leading to his or her defeat. This may not be illegal, but ethicists would say it is not ethical to lie or mislead in order to gain power; and yet, in politics, such things can often occur, and usually with no consequences to the person who spread the false information. But the danger is that there can be a backlash: the public can easily turn on a candidate whom they believe to be dishonest or untrustworthy, and that candidate can lose the power that was gained in a dishonorable way.
Giving false information can lead to misunderstandings, confusion, and potentially harm relationships and trust. It can also result in making wrong decisions or taking inappropriate actions based on inaccurate information. In some cases, spreading false information can have legal consequences or damage one's credibility and reputation.
Misleading statements are statements that are intentionally deceptive or unclear, leading to a false understanding or impression. They can be used to manipulate or influence others by conveying information that is not entirely accurate or truthful. Misleading statements can be harmful as they can undermine trust and distort reality.
