There is rarely an "overbooking" of the F cabin itself. Some airlines will overbook C/J. Sometimes equipment will be swapped and then there can be serious overbooking.

As already said, if the plane has more potential pax than available seats, they will gladly take you as a volunteer, but unless you are on a paid F ticket, you will be treated like any other schmo.
