Absolutely hilarious! No wonder I'm so dubious about these certs. Twisted Evil

Here is my favorite excerpt from that little scam:

"Through our unique "self-evaluation" method, we leave it up to you to decide if you are qualified to teach ESL classes."

The really frightening aspect, imho, is that they're probably doing a 'booming' business.

As I've said before: if it looks fishy, smells fishy or tastes fishy, it's probably fish. OK, gotta run now. I have a serious self-evaluation to do, and I'm running late.

Have a Nice Weekend,

I was going to post some links to websites offering fake degrees/diplomsa. But then I thought maybe it is not a good idea to post these links here as some people might get the wrong idea. Perhaps people should also post some stories about people who have been caught with fake degrees.
