Can the cheat detection algorithm produce a false positive?

I have wondered this.  I have a couple opening lines where I have the first numerous 10 moves...and best computer moves... memorized.  Occasionally, in the back of my mind I wonder what would happen if I an opponent hit my memorized opening line where I play the best computer-move memorized 10 moves, and then I proceed, and just happen to hit out the next 4 or 5 moves on my own, which turn out as best computer moves. 

So:  First 10 moves = best computer moves memorized.

Next 5 moves:   I just happen to make the best move...having a great game.  Opponent gets 3-4 points behind, and the game quickly ends.  I get an accuracy score of like 99%.

chess.com algorithm sees I make 15 best computer moves in a row.   Ruh-Roh.

There is no such thing as an ip ban.  More a scare tactic than anything.

Anything can be hacked, if the person has the know how.
