In a psychological sense the how is they lie. But there seem to be two types. Imposters lie to themselves that the results would mean something. Scammers lie to others to farm sponsorships, students, subscribes and likes.
its not difficult to understand that you cheat by seeking assistance from someone or something stronger than you. that's what cheating is all about
