Another way to get this is to have high standards, but poor ability to track performance. Then you get more cheaters than honest folks as fewer are able to actually meet the standards. Imagine, for example, job ads that require 50 years of Java experience from employers who are too clueless to verify such things. Or grading on a curve with a teacher who uses the exact same tests every year. When some people have tests & answers, everyone who doesn't will end up with lower grades.
