When Microsoft and CompTIA got aggressive with homegrown braindump and cheat sites last year, the rest moved overseas. This was particularly true when Robert Keppel actually received jail time for his crimes. The current owners of braindump sites, mostly located in China and Pakistan, believe that they are untouchable. This is the first case that I am aware of where a certification vendor has gone after an international target and will hopefully pave the way to getting rid of the rest of the low lifes out there. It will be interesting to see if CompTIA can enforce the results of the lawsuit which is apparently still pending as neither of the defendants have responded to the suit. We will keep you posted as we learn more. Click here to read the full CertCities article.
