Report a cheating service
By reporting a cheating service you are protecting yourself and other students from criminal activity.
In Australia, commercial cheating services are illegal and might offer to:
- sell you essays or assignments
- ask you to upload previous work from your course
- sell you study notes or exams
- sit exams on your behalf
