long time reader first time poster. would information about an alleged degree mill operator be worth anything? where they live? bank accounts? phone numbers?
If you are asking whether it's worth anything significant financially, then the straight answer is no. If you are asking whether it's worth anything in a broader sense, then the answer is yes. I am sure that someone (e.g. John Bear) can direct you to law enforcement agencies that might be interested. In any case, I hope you will continue to refrain from posting such information here.
heh. i never refrained to begin with so its kinda hard to continue. and don't try that holier than thou junk... do you know J. by any chance?
youre him arent you? its a small world. i just read some of your past posts... you best double check who you are affiliated with.
This thread is already confusing me. Not entirely clear what's going on. There have been occasions when both the media and the FBI have paid informants, but they are rare, and growing rarer. However, since most phony schools also are practicing tax fraud, and since the IRS does have fairly decent rewards for people who turn in tax frauds, there could be that option, if you hope to make money with your knowledge. And if you wish to see justice done, I could certainly direct you to people who would have interest, and could initiate an investigation, or at least make efforts in that way.

Although many "degree mills" are academically worthless, they are nevertheless legal. Their owners are breaking no laws by operating them. But if some of your information was obtained illegally, you could end up getting yourself in more trouble than your intended target. So if you are contemplating selling personal information on somebody, or otherwise making it public, I'd suggest talking to an attorney before you do it.
well, honestly i dont know anything about the law in this aspect. the only information i have obtained however, is what ive seen and heard while working for this "school". what should i ask a lawyer? and thank you for the advice dr. bear. ive heard a lot about you. unfortunately, my source is pretty biased towards you. if anyone has any suggestions they don't want to post [email protected]
From Merriam-Webster Online: Main Entry: red herring Function: noun Date: 15th century 1 : a herring cured by salting and slow smoking to a dark brown color 2 [from the practice of drawing a red herring across a trail to confuse hunting dogs] : something that distracts attention from the real issue. These kinds of posts are worthy of little more than being ignored. Why take the bait? I'd rather talk about real DL issues than chase ghosts. Rich Douglas
Mr. Knowledge writes, of me, "unfortunately, my source is pretty biased towards you." What's unfortunate about that? It is people biased against me that I occasionally fret about. Mr. Knowledge writes, "...i just didn't know how else to handle this... " Here's an idea: use your real name. Far more credible. Far more likely to get you taken seriously.
