I had good success stopping cheating by using images of text instead of actual text. Typing in a foreign language is not trivial if it's not something you're used to doing.

I used a python wrapper for pango-view to generate the text. I have a python module for this here: https://github.com/j2labs/pyango_view

Nothing complicated about what I'm doing but the github page shows how nice the text can really look.



It might also be of interest that I recently posted a gist that shows how to post some basic mechanical turk tasks using Python's boto library.
