Of course, but the commenter I replied to made a specific statement, first sentence, making it sound to my reading - and I don't think I'm reading something into it that isn't meant to be there? - as if it's a lot less in the US. But even a little bit of searching, and every single time the topic comes up here, which usually is for higher education so I'm not making any statement about anything below, ends up with a lot of comments, and no opposition to them, saying there is a lot of cheating there.
Examples:

> McCabe’s original research and subsequent follow-up studies show that more than 60 percent of university students freely admit to cheating in some form.

> The level of cheating in high school according to statistics is extremely high. One of the most thorough studies, carried out by Dr. Donald McCabe, reveals that about 95% of polled students (both undergraduates and graduates) admitted to having cheated in some form.

Therefore, it surprised my that the original commenter made such a strong statement.
fwiw - I think Americans value integrity a lot more than most other places, and academic cheating is not nearly as common.
