She was allegedly paid by a student to share her answers by sending the student snapped photos of her TOEIC and TEPS tests with her smartphone.
A Korean international student was taken into custody by the Gyeonggi Provincial Police Agency on Thursday for an international crime.
The 21-year-old woman, identified only by her surname Noh, was allegedly paid by a student to share her answers by sending the student snapped photos of her TOEIC and TEPS tests with her smartphone.
Noh placed an ad online from August 2011 to June 2012 stating that she would take the TOEIC/TEPS for paying customers, the police said. She kept her end of the bargain by snapping photos of her answers and sending them to her clients. For each test, she received $2000 to $3000, the police said. It is suspected that she earned around $27,000 in total.
The police said Noh replaced photos of her clients on their driver's licenses with her own to take their test for them three different times.
Noh's motive was reportedly to earn the tuition and living costs for the prestigious university she attends because her father's business failed.
Besides Noh, three others who offered the same services as Noh and 37 clients who took part in these transactions were booked without detention
