J.K. Rowling lifted (approximate) character names and some terms from books by Nancy Stouffer. J.K. Rowling is a billionaire. Publishers wouldn't re-release Stouffer's books. Draw your own conclusions about who was punished and how.

In an academic setting if you're caught, you'll flunk. On the job, you could lose your job, or at the very least, your credibiblity and reputation.
