Oh this just gets better. The music for that video was whatever, but I'm impressed just impressed there's a business for cheating on a global scale. Yeah, it existed before but it was something more low key (and kinda easy to screw/get screwed on). First adderall addiction, now streamlined cheating
If it's like some of the other cheat sites that one of my professors said not to even try, they'll give you a generic paper that others will of course also try to submit.
Haha holy shit, the scum levels

People are willing to pay a lot of money to save time. I know of a computer science major that occasionally does work for an introduction to using computers class. He made $250 from 5 people, and all he had to do was =sum and =average on a couple of excel sheets.
I can only imagine how much money people would be willing to pay for lengthy essays. I also have to wonder what grade students want from this service, and if that factors in to cost.
A lot of universities that do online courses have things like SafeAssign and other programs to automatically detect plagarism, and submit student papers to their paper banks (anonymized) to prevent cheating, with consent I assume through university policy or via waivers.
Schools have zero tolerance policies for willful plagiarism. Things like 'forgot to cite this one thing' or 'paraphrased without properly citing' usually are just sent back to the student to redo, but a student submitting an entire paper they didn't make will give a zero for the student's final grade for that class and have them go on academic probation.
Professors are generally understanding if you have commitments or something happens in your life which makes you unable to do work on time (as long as you let them or the dean know ahead of time) and academic disability allows for increased time to do work within reason. I simply can't understand why people would want to risk cheating with so much on the line when you could just get a late grade instead. They drilled plagiarism stuff in our heads in college and First Year Experience had mandatory coverage of what it is, how it happens, and what punishments are involved. I simply can't fathom people who would rather leave their college career up to chance and pay out the ass rather than deal with some work.
I believe that too. I spoke to a recruiter at a job fair that specialized in teaching company employees (from other companies) how to actually use some of the programs they have to use. Excel being one of the top dogs. Excel is a wonderful tool but so many people have zero clue how to utilize it for basic functions. Teaching someone how to use a pivot table blows their minds
People are always looking for an easy way to get through their courses and are more than willing to pay rather than put in the effort. When I was still in college a few years ago studying IT (networking and systems i'm an IT Technician now) I was set to finish about a month before almost everyone else bar two other guys as I was rather dedicated to finishing with the best outcome and I found myself in a position where where I had a number of people offering me money to do their work for them. When uploading work for marking it is checked for similarity based off of the internet and previously submitted work so people generally want something unique and hand crafted. There was a good few people so far behind they was going to drop out (some did) nearing the end of the course and after years of study they just wanted an easy stress free way to finish.
For anyone wondering I didn't take any money by this point in time I had already had an interview and landed a job I was waiting to start so I just wanted to wrap up college and get out the door so I could start properly earning.
Adam Saleh? Does not surprise me at all, that slimy bastard
And zero tolerance really means it, your career/education can end in an instant with virtually no means of recovery if you engage in willful plagiarism. If you tried to do risk analysis on it you would honestly probably be better off taking a zero instead of plagiarizing an essay, academic probation is probably the best outcome from being caught.
Especially don't do it on a thesis because it's very well possible to even be caught out years later lmao.
self-plagiarism is a thing as well, and before i was aware of that i wound up having to prove that A: I was the one who wrote the allegedly plagiarized chunks of my essay, and B: that said chunks (around three paragraphs) constituted well under the accepted 20% by university policy and that the overall point of the second essay was substantially different from the point of the first. when two classes call for substantial analysis of zombie culture during the same semester, it's frustrating to establish the same basic points twice in two separate ways.
As someone who has never cheated on any of his university work, I still loathed those programs.
They take my intellectual property and then use it as the backbone of their business without approval or compensation. LITERALLY THE HALF THE REASON PLAGIARISM IS BAD.
"you can pay professional nerds to write your essays for you plagiarism free"
well i know she didn't go to school since she doesn't know what plagiarism means
I'm pretty sure the approval was taking the class since you do imply certain limited rights to the school by submitting essays to them.
The University minister looks so disappointed in this image

I suppose it's not plagiarism, more like ghost-writing, since you're not stealing someone else's work. You're ordering work done for you by a third party in your name.
paying money for essays will never not be dumb to me.
be smart! when cheating, don't write answers on your arms, write them on your legs and wear sweatpants.
Reminds me of a thing that was happening in Aus universities where Chinese students would pay someone else who looked Chinese to do their exams because lecturers couldn't tell them apart on their IDs.
He's not angry, just disappointed
You're supposed to keep cheating on the down low. Making it a business renders it useless.
