I would rather say "I think so" than "I don't think so", but leaving a small room for doubt.

But that is lying, of course. You're basically saying "no, I haven't seen it" -- just with a bit of a spin on it, for the sake of plausible deniability.

Not that's the wrong thing to do here - I agree that that's exactly what you should do (if your main goal is to get the job and grab the money).

And in fact that's exactly what these companies expect you to do.
