Ultimately, the employer who refused to hire you gave you a valid reason -- refusal to participate in your fraud on your state's unemployment agency. Since employment, if any, in the U.S. is on an "at will" basis, failure to follow through on a promise of terminable-at-will employment results in no actionable damages. This result is even stronger under circumstances where you were seeking an illegal result (a legal doctrine called "in pari delicto").
