I was playing a game on my alt account and then I lost, but when I came back I regained my elo points. I did game review and it said that the ooponent's accuracy was 99.6. What else do I need to know if someone is cheating?

The perception of cheating levels is orders of magnitude more than the actual amount. The vast majority of games and players are clean.
