I just checked my RBN spots and noticed the same thing. I only tried
running once with not takers, all the rest was S&P but was spotted when
calling other stations.
I seldom use the RBN during a contest but it does seem to me that it would
be better if it only picked up on stations sending CQ or TEST.
OK, back in my hole,

Probably not anyone cheating in the manner you describe.
I found this a LOT. (Among all the other busted calls).
One datapoint to support this: I just looked up my call at RBN. It
appears that I was spotted 30 times this weekend.
However, I was 100% S&P during the contest. I did not call CQ at all
this
weekend.
