The perception of cheating levels is orders of magnitude more than the actual amount. The vast majority of games and players are clean.
Regarding brilliant moves, lower rated players sac material all the time. Most of the time it's not going to be good but they'll still get brilliants in games. That said, if you suspect someone, you should report them.
