Ari,

You may not care. I play opponents between 1300 to 1700 in blitz and 1500 and
1900 in standard (my standard rating is 400 points higher than my blitz) and
although I have run into a few suspicious games, I just chalk it up as another
loss (although the overly arrogant tells I get from the 1500 player who tears me
apart is sometimes a little too much). But, I usually do not care. However,
there are a lot of players who do not get enjoyment from being quickly taken
apart from someone "their own level", so although it does not often bother me
too much, I'm sure it drives some people crazy (and I can respect that).
