I've been in a major airline that "routinely" lied about cargo weights. Vancouver photographers knew that this airline would always rotate right at the far end of the runway, providing them with some nice photos. Aircraft would also never make performance altitudes, etc. I believe one crew insisted on all cargo being weighed upon arrival and it was found that there was a massive discrepancy in cargo weights. Lots of bluster from company but they knew what was going on and did nothing about it.
