I think a lot would depend on where/how it appeared in a resume. If it's
displayed prominently or under "Certifications" then I would lean towards
Scott V's theory about potentially being deceptive and hoping to get by the
HR/Recruiter types who don't know a CCIE from an MCSE but have to check a
box.
There's always potential for grey area, but I think it depends on just how
it's portrayed.
My two cents.

Gotta agree with you. Person is NOT claiming that he is a CCIE. I think you
have got to mention that you have passed CCIE Written and are scheduled to
attempt the lab. Throwing the resume out just because it says CCIE Written
is just ignorance at it's best.
Now if it said CCIE with no ccie# then that's a different story :)
