You don't swear anything with a DMCA, the law says this in 3.A.vi: > A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Ah yep, so they most likely did chuck in the "I swear, under penalty of perjury" to sound more intimidating and dramatic then.
