Which is actually the enabler here: just register a friend or relative as living in your apartment, and you're done. And of course, you're doing that as a favor, so you're not charging them any rent that might be a subject to taxation.

Pay the garbage collectors to rat out homes that never leave anything out. Are the windows always left open even on the hottest days and no A/C? Is the keyfob for entry never used? Ultimately, every tax can be evaded. Income, sales, corporate. This one won’t be any different. I do wonder who might rat out their completely quiet neighbour though.
