Correspondence game won by cheat detected?

I just won a game against better player by, it seems, lichess ending the game. It says cheat detected. Game was in opening stage, no cheat possible there...

Seems like a bug?

This msg shows up, when the position is put into the analysis board

So, oponent resigned then? For no reason?

No. Lichess detected him putting the position on the analysis board with engine on, so he was cheating

It's cheating to use an engine, even in a correspondence opening.

Ok, I did not know that was possible. I thought lichess analyzed current active game and thought it was a bug, since game just started. Thanks for the clarification.

Funny to see this happening with an FM

I don't understand why the game ended in a win, rather than an abort. MrDimitar gained rating points for this? Normal cheat detection results in a refund of lost points, trying to pretend the game never happened.

I agree with @mcgoves here, there should be no points gained for this!

In the studio, I typed this option for work from Khalifman's lecture on YouTube from the Levite chess website and naturally analyzed it. What does this position have to do with it.
