Of course people could do that, but you have to find someone willing to do it or be able to afford to pay for it. It happens but it's maybe 5% or students or less.

There is always going to be cheating. But once it becomes nearly impossible to detect, and maybe 30% or more people are doing it, the system breaks down.
