all you need to cheat at scrabble online is a dictionary. word biz is nice cause it has a clock, which limits some of it, but yeah, if you're concerned about losing large amount of money to online scrabble hustlers you're probably justified in not playing.

Just google 'scrabble strategy' and memorize all the 2 and 3 letter words, that will easily take you to the next level. There are a bunch of weird ones that are good to know: aa, ae, ai, qi, ki, za, ba, bo, bi, li, om, em, ef, er, aw, xu, xi, etc.
You don't need to memorize the definitions though it's easier to if you see a list with the words and the definitions. Aa is a form of cindery lava, an ai is a type of sloth, a xu is a form of vietnamese currency, etc.

People say dictionaries usually but you're right, a dictionary will help little.
Google 'scrabble anagram solver' or 'anagram solver' and you'll get a java resource that lets you input your tiles and will output a list of all possible words.
I don't recommend that anybody cheats, but if you're going to play you should be aware of the possibilities for cheating before you put any significant money down.
The two ways that sorta prevent this are playing fast games (5 min and under) or playing the no challenge format, where the program verifies every word, illegal words are prohibited and you have endless opportunities to play a legal word.

There's only so much you can get out of an anagram solver. Sure, you'll know if you can bingo or not, but it won't help you with strategy. There's a lot more to scrabble than playing the 80 pt words. I'm pretty sure I could still beat JayA if he used an anagrammer, and I don't think the score would change too significantly either.

'za' is such garbage but damn is it helpful - turns the z from a liability into less of one

anagram solver + two letter word list would give a player a hudge advantage.
