No one is immune from fraud. There will always be scoundrels.

Collusion are common in the double or nothing format,that's why most site refused to offer any regular speed double or nothing anymore imo.

pokerstars had issues with a Chinese DON collusion team and limited one player to a DON from that Country.

Cheating will always be a issue as long as their is the potential for some players to make more in one game than they would in a month.
Some things I often look for is trap plays and timing tells.

Trap is when they are in early position and limp or call the blind with their buddy in late position either min raising or shoving,depending on desired outcome.
Sometimes people will get caught calling as the players keep min bumping the preflop pot.
Timing is when they continually are playing in a set time but in a certain position keep using more time to possibly collude.

Unfortunately fraud is everywhere, in poker too. I've heard many cases of collusion during the game. The PokerStars carefully struggling with these people.

Didn't meet deception. I think that the administration of PS watches it.

I've seen it a couple of times, maybe more, and then there's times where I think they are cheating, but I wasn't sure. When I did see it it was usually in a sit and go and lucky not only did I call the player out but so did the other players at the table and it stopped. I'm more concerned with playing against bots right now and occasionally I will call someone out as being a bot hoping that the poker gods catch on.

as far as collusion is worth skype provides that option and I feel that some player do use it
I have seen unrelated comments in the chat box that seemed to answer question that had not been asked at the table making me think the answer had been typed in the wrong place
the game can be hard enough as it is for general players these people should be named and permanently banned you can be banned from a casino for cheating why not on line
