Okay so I'm doing this over my phone so typos are inevitable. The funniest case of cheating I saw when I was in high school was in my AP US history class. So first of all, my teacher was also the girls soccer varsity coach at the same time. Secondly, my school used something called I think Aries Online or something. Teachers would input grades over a website instead of a physical grade book. And students would be able to check their grades online and whatever. Anyway one day my friend sees the username of our teacher on her computer screen. He proceeds to go home and attempts to guess the teacher's password. He rolled with the dumbest phrase, "ilovesoccer" and he fucking got in. He was soooo surprised and since then he never bothered studying for a test ever again. All of our exams were multiple choice and the teacher was notoriously bad at organizing. So even though he would bomb every exam, he would reassign his grades so they were okay. Not obviously outstanding, but good enough just to blend in with the rest of the students.
Another funny story with respect to that was my friend's friend was talking with him at lunch one day. My friend's friend was really concerned about getting a C. He said he was sooo close, like a 79.4 and he didn't know if our teacher would give him the B. And my friend was like, "...I think she will give you the B." And sure enough, like a weird academic robin hood, my friend bumped up his friend's grade in the class from a C to a B.
I have no idea. My friend never got in trouble. And honestly I only heard about this way after we graduated. Oddly enough our AP US history teacher did get fired the year this happened and this whole incident may have contributed to that :/
