10-4-6-F: A player must not: Faking being fouled.

I've been playing, coaching, officiating, and observing since mid-1960's. Never saw it called.

I'm pretty sure that some Forum members have seen it called (or called it). Others have posted about warning the perpetrator, or calling a "fake" foul on the perpetrator.

Probably see it called more in soccer (flopping).
