Rating Skyrocketed - How ?

I tried to have a live game and landed up with evgenykr rating 1327. Whilst I waited for his move (I was white) he aborted. I saw his last live game was against rakokate rating 1208, which he won, and then he jumped to 1327. How is this possible and who do I have to bribe to jump 120 points in one shot ?

It might not give me love or money in the bank, but I like to retain my sanity. Someone jumps 120 points after one live game, this is insane ! I work my guts out for a measly 5 or 12 points, should I win, and 120 points would be about 15 -20 games won in a row, not one game only.  All I want is fair play.

Those ratings are for different time controls.  Please do your homework before peppering the forums with inane questions.

The points are nothing, neither the outcome if you win or lose. What is important is mental stretch- how well you analyze every move you and your opponent makes. Chess is a minds game not a numbers game.
