Is the use of "fake" personal data punishable?

I work on the Internet with an affiliate program that suddenly asked me to send an agreement on the processing of my personal data, moreover, with paper. Otherwise, the money will not be paid to me. Can I enter the left data and send it to them? It is not enough to send all the information about yourself to everyone in a row ..

When you formalized your relationship with this company (registered in the affiliate program), you accepted the user agreement (acceptance made by pressing the button on the screen has real legal force), in which, among other things, you undertake to provide them with accurate and reliable information about yourself. By the same agreement, they commit themselves to provide you with certain services, pay them for your services, and confidentially store all information received from you. The same agreement (most likely) spells out the measures that they have the right to apply to the violator of the agreement. Even if this is not explicitly stated, they still have the right to take measures for self-defense, although their position on this issue is already weaker.
Now about what they can actually do:
First, cancel your account along with all the funds that are stuck there. And you will not be able to recover anything from them, even if there are living witnesses who personally saw how you did the work for which they promised (under the (violated) agreement) to pay money.
Secondly, they may refuse to register a new account for you with their already real data if they can somehow figure out that you are the same violator of the agreement.
Thirdly, (purely hypothetically) they may try to recover from you the material damage attributed to their company by your actions. But for such claims, the burden of proof lies entirely on the side of the plaintiff (and we know that there really is nothing to prove there), so no one ever does this in life.
Fourthly, they can transfer to the authorities or throw out to the public any information received from you during the entire time of your cooperation with them, starting from your very false personal data and ending with all the IPs from which you accessed them. The confidentiality of all this data is based on the very user agreement that you violated. But, on the other hand, here they may run into a claim on your part for compensation for moral and / or material damage, if you manage to somehow prove the connection of this damage with their actions. (But I have already gone into hypothetical reasoning).
In short ... 98% they will just squeeze the money and the story will end there.

If you get caught, it's punishable. If not, it is not punishable.
Here's how lucky.

It's up to you to decide if it's worth it. Although in fact it looks like a money scam. They did not require data before starting work. I would stop working with them and provide them with a profit. Such offices should go bankrupt and leave the market.
