Re: RE: [MTC Global] Watch out for fake degrees

Dear Sir, Applying on fake degrees has its downside. For eg; In a company, a peon
or an office boy is suitable with a 12 standard and a clerk or an assistant may
fit the bill with a BA or a BSC degree. Now it happens that promotions and
increments are worked out annually and there a scrutiny of the certificates
especially on a tip or information of an institution awarding fake degrees. In
such a scrutiny if the employee is detected to possess a fake degree then there is
a high chance of a demotion. So an Assistant may be demoted to a peon if found to
be hard working and sincere otherwise he may be removed.
It doesn't get very far with a fake degree.

As fake products are in the market similarly fake degrees are in the markets.

Dear Prof. Dutta,Greetings of the Day,Its my privilege to read your kind e-mail
notification on "Watch out for Fake Degrees". There are two major issues where we
must concentrate:
A) Awareness Issue from Govt. side or Forum of Consumer's Protection.

B) Individual's expectation to be Most Qualified personality.

I am referring recent survey report by one leading Newspaper of Mumbai: 70% of
higher degrees in Engineering, MBA & PhD from abroad are available through on-line
registration only by paying in US $. Therefore, it will be the prime
responsibility of individual's to check the authenticity of those Degrees which
are available through on-line registration and getting a copy of Merit of
Certificate by sitting at home.With Regards,

from a fake one may seem daunting. Checks need to be put in place to curtail the
crime."You can now apply for a job in any MNC in India or abroad. Get a diploma,
degree or a certificate from any major university today. Professional degrees from
top engineering, law, MCA, MBA or design institutes are also available."This is an
extract from one of the thousand advertisements blatantly promoting counterfeit
degrees in India. The country has received a notorious label for having the
highest number of cases of employment-related inconsistencies, according to a
recent background discrepancy survey done globally by background screening
firmFirst Advantage. "The survey was carried out globally, and the data had been
collected from the employment logs of various industries. An alarming rate of 50
per cent of all the job aspirants forging their previous job experience
certificates were exposed during the survey. In fact, the statistics of 2013
indicated cases with such irregularities in some employment sectors to have been
as high as 71.5 per cent."For a few hundred dollars, you can buy a degree of any
college in the world. .Identifying fake degreesDifferentiating a genuine degree
from a fake one can be a daunting task. First, the forgers have been able to
decipher what kind of stationery or paper to use, the right kind of ink to use as
well as identical stamps, making it extremely difficult to spot a fake. Secondly,
the broken system allows some of the fake degrees to be issued with the help of
university officials themselves for the price of a few hundred dollars.This makes
background checks extremely hard for a corporate or any institution. The
reputation of universities and institutes under whose name the fake degrees are
issued, also gets affected. There are certain options that can help curtail this
problem.Employers and institutions have the option of using manual checking
systems, which typically entails a verification agency to do physical checks at
various locations to ensure that correct data is being submitted by job-seekers.
This is an expensive, lengthy and a cumbersome process, which may take days or
even weeks to complete. This is not always foolproof.Recently, a new solution is
being considered by institutions, which seems to be a quick and inexpensive
option. Authenticate, a global software company, has recently launched a simple,
yet highly secure solution to hasten and foolproof the verification process. This
can be implemented by educational institutions while issuing degrees and
certificates, and can be instantly verified at the user end by a simple and free
downloadable app on a smart phone. It can be implemented in no time and is
"counterfeit-proof." It can help deserving candidates get the right jobs, besides
enabling employers save millions in carrying out background checks and
verification process of the candidates.Educate, Empower, ElevateProf. Bholanath
