Here’s What Happens When The Wider Community Hears About Contract Cheating

This is a post I made on my personal blog about a particular case of contract cheating using Freelancer.com.

The Contract Cheating Saga Of Crazylarry23

It’s interesting to me as it illustrates that people outside the core academic discipline involved with contract cheating are not aware how common this type of academic misconduct is.

The article discusses the case of Crazylarry23, his attempts to outsource work using Freelancer.com and the detective work carried out by the community to ensure that he did not succeed.

More detective work of that type around the contract cheating community would always be welcome.

Contract Cheating Special Interest Group

Along with the Higher Education Academy and the JISCMail service, we maintain an online mailing list for people interested in contract cheating.

The Contract Cheating Special Interest Group Mailing List can be accessed and joined here.

We also hold meetings at live events but most discussion is currently through the mailing list. There are some interesting discussions in the archives, including those from Private Tutors involved in the field.
