Is there anyone who verified successfully after using fake data at registration? And did you have to do some "special" verification process because of the fake data?

I had a legacy account that I wasn't bothered to verify, but I signed in today and basically, you were able to fill in the "profile verification" form with any name you want, even if it doesn't match your account first and last names. After that, you're redirected to Netverify to complete verification.

I have no idea whether or not verifying your account like this will actually result in a positive result (50/50 probably), but it's worth a try first. I couldn't find any past cases.

If it doesn't work, then you'd have to contact support. As slow as polo support may be, I think they'll be able to help you. Just clarify that you signed up with an assumed name, and now you want to verify it. They should at least be able to withdraw your funds for you after verification, even if it means that your account is suspended.
