According to www.study.com, "Intentional plagiarism is the purposeful passing off of someone else's ideas or words as your own...intentional plagiarism is generally considered worse because it involves conscious, pre-meditated deception.
Some examples of intentional plagiarism include:
- Buying a pre-written research paper online
- Using a stock essay (e.g. from a fraternity or sports team paper archive)
- Only changing a few words or phrases from the original source without proper citation
- Rearranging sentences and word order from the original source without proper citation
- Not giving credit (i.e. citations) to someone else's ideas"

Duke University's plagiarism tutorial adds these as examples of plagiarism:
- "Letting someone else write part or all of a paper for you.
- Paying someone else to write part or all of a paper for you.
- Submitting as your own someone else's unpublished work (including a computer program or algorithm), either with or without permission.
- Submitting as your own, work done jointly by a group in which you may have participated.
- Submitting work done by you, but for another class or another purpose without documenting that it was previously used.
- Creating phony citations."
