IGCSE mocks

So someone a year older than me sent me an IGCSE paper for this year. The paper hasn't been released yet. The person said that the paper will probably be on the mock I sit. I accidently printed out a few extra copies and someone found them, now everyone knows that I knew what was on the paper. Is this considered cheating as I wasn't certain that this paper would be on the mock.

Yes it's considered cheating.
Your examiner won't care as its a mock and has no bearing on your actual exams but your teachers will have a dim view of it.
Cheating on mocks is foolish, you learn nothing about what you need to improve and your teachers don't learn where you need help.
