Can I claim to be the PM when officially i'm not?

Question

So we had a project and a guy was appointed to be the PM (randomly by a computer programme). However, he was not that responsible and useful. The rule was that the PM does not actually do anything, but management the team. He was very good at the first part, contributing absolutely zero. The thing is, he did not management the team either. I was instead the point of contact for everything of the team. 

Do you think in my CV, I could claim myself to be the PM if on paper, I was not but actually I was the one who ran the show? 

Thanks

No, you did not manage the Team either, from your own description you simply acted as the Team liaison person. If you want to become a proper Project Manager you ought to learn the difference between manage and management.

No, dear - that's calling lying.
