It's a society/cultural/behavioral thing.

In China they have a saying: 能骗就骗.




Does that just mean "cheat" or is google translate wrong?


translation:

  If you can cheat, cheat. 
literal word for word translation:

  Can cheat. Do cheat.
In Chinese the word lie can be used in place of cheat and in this context it means something similar to cheating other people.
