ABSTRACT
Plagiarism among student term papers is considered as a major problem these days. To successfully identify this kind of cheating we have to perform check on submitted papers for plagiarism. This has to be done with appropriate plagiarism detection software. In this paper we describe the most common ways how to deceive this software by introducing four obfuscation categories. We take several existing plagiarism detection tools and test their resistance against simple but effective obfuscations. Proposing our own method and implementing it into a plagiarism detection system we identify obfuscated documents.
