Keldrin_1 writes "Almost everyone has, at one point or another, come up against a deadline that they just were not able to meet. A new website has arisen that promises to solve the problem by providing you with a 'completed project' that has mysteriously been corrupted over email and now can not be opened. Corrupted-files.com offers to cure all your homework and deadline woes for the low fee of $3.95 (soon to be $5.95). From the site: 'Who's to say your 5 sheet Excel file didn't get corrupted? Exactly! No one can! It's the perfect excuse to buy yourself extra time and not hand in a garbage project. Plagiarism is not the answer to procrastination. — Corrupted-Files.com is!'

Any time my college roommate had an assignment that he didn't feel like doing on time, he would open up his hex editor and remove a few lines. I'm just jealous because I didn't think of this first. This guy has a fraction of the overhead of a lot of web based companies and sells a service that literally anyone can do. This is like paying someone to pump your gas for you, in New Jersey, no less!

/me wonders if they strip all the identifying data out of the office files. I can just see the first kid who has a teacher open the corrupted file anyways, find the metadata, and bust the little bugger for turning in something he didn't create.

  Not to mention it won't help if your professors went to slashdot regularly for tech news like mine did.
