I'm sure you can
find more than five, but Malcom's deceptive descriptions of himself to Macduff in Act IV
scene iii should suffice. With each argument Macduff provides for Malcom's becoming king
of Scotland, Malcom provides a scathing, hyperbolic image.
"...black Macbeth
will seem as pure as snow...being compared to my confineless harms."
(52-54)
"...there's no bottom, none, in my voluptuousness..."
(60-61)
"a stanchless avarice" (78)
"I should pour the sweet milk of
concord into he'll, uproar the universal peace, confound all unity on earth."
(97-99)

Macduff responds to all of this: "Fit to govern! No, not to
live!"

All of these (and more if you look for them) are pretty
extreme exaggerations.
