Missouri Passes Law Against Diploma Mills

Diploma Mill Police > Fake Diploma News

Missouri has passed a law that makes it illegal to use fake degrees, transcripts or credentials when applying for work or engaging in business in the State of Missouri. The law was drafted in response to specific cases of employment fraud in the state involving false transcripts and academic degrees from college degree mills. In one case, the University of Missouri-Columbia caught a job applicant submitting false doctorate transcripts from the university to secure employment at a health care facility. In another high profile case, a couple from St. Charles, Missouri submitted false records from Lindenwood University and St. Charles Community colleges, both real universities, in an effort to secure state teaching jobs.
