You can fabricate data nearly as easily as you can fabricate results. It is easier to detect fabricated results from raw data than it is from the final results, but fraud adapts to the methods used to detect it. If you create a new way to detect fraud, fraud will change to avoid that method. Detecting fraud is an arms race.
