Worker A: What happened to that guy that was hired last week?
Worker B: He was fired a few days ago. Despite his master's degree, he was completely incompetent in his field. Turns out he was a paper tiger who just plagiarized other people for his degree.

Person A: How's that project coming along?
Person B: It's a bit of a struggle, all I got right now is a paper tiger. I think I've almost figured out what went wrong, though.

A person that has seemingly excellent credentials (college degree, money, inflated job title) but is really a complete looser and out of touch with reality. Definitely the type with major skelatons in the closet. Frequently found among avid gamers.
