This single word is enough for anyone to give you red trust rating on your profile when it comes to the merit.

Understand that the merit system is nothing but the appreciation given to the quality contributors who contribute some value to the community and members of it. It doesn't make any sense if non-quality contributors get any chance to acquire merit points without the efforts and hence I would recommend you not even to think about cheating the system.

Seek the knowledge and share it with the other members that will add some value to the community, merit is just a by-product of this process.
