Ok so what happens when the bullshitter gets all the recognition and nobody believes you when you try to prove otherwise? Document and take legal action?

Seconded. The “face man” gets to be the public face and thereby a lot of the social credit and perhaps most of the work credit as well.

We see people like this all the time in management who take all the credit for the work from those who actually did the work.
