I realize that you guys are only quite very metaphorically speaking about the prospects of aiding students with committing plagiarism. But even if you were quite literally very serious, you wouldn't last very long.
www.turnitin.com (Turn-it-in) - is a highly sophisticated, online system, which attempts to finds matches in a students' paper with absolutely anything that exists on the Internet, or within its own database that largely consists of past student papers. Plagiarism is already starting to become a thing of the past.
I recently submitted some papers to www.turnitin.com, and within minutes it detected all of my direct quotes (referenced though of course) -- which I had just merely copied and pasted from the Internet.
