The employee manipulated lineups during live games, violating contest rules and leading to immediate termination.

An employee of SportsHub Games Network was fired after being found to have cheated in a fantasy football contest with a $150,000 grand prize.
The employee was able to switch his lineup during live games using internal controls, a violation of the rules.
Specifically, the employee swapped out Miami Dolphins' Raheem Mostert for Green Bay Packers' Aaron Jones during a game, and Kansas City Chiefs' Rashee Rice for teammate Travis Kelce in another.
The cheating was discovered thanks to reporting by a public source, leading to immediate action by SportsHub.
Over 1,500 people had entered the contest, which required a $200 entry fee.
