Roy Sun, 25, masterminded a plot with two other students at Purdue University to ensure he got straight As despite only attending one class.
Sun and his accomplice, Mitsutoashi Shirasaki, placed devices on their instructors' computers to copy their passwords before logging in and changing their grades late at night.
According to the Journal and Courier, Sun, who got a legitimate A in the one class he did attend, along with a best student award, said: 'It became so much easier to change my grades than going to class and working real hard.'
The scheme began in 2008 when Sun changed just one grade to see if he would be caught. When the forgery went unnoticed he became bolder, and roped other students into the plot.
Shirasaki, who now lives in Japan after Sun told him to return there, used to sneak into academics' offices along with Sun to plant keystroke recorders - devices that record every key pressed on the computer.
Another student, Sujay Sharma, who was sentenced to 18 months, stood watch at the door and also had one grade altered by Sun and Shirasaki without knowing.
Sun and Shirasaki developed a system where they would log on to the University system about 10 minutes before the deadline for entering final grades, which was usually late at night, and then alter them. 作者: fsae88 时间: 2014-10-10 17:54
可惜了，有技术不用到正道上
