We’re not sure if this is lamentable or laughable, but the Record has stumbled upon a woman advertising National Senior Certificates (matric certificates) for sale on her Facebook page.
The woman’s name is being withheld as the matter is being reported to the police to investigate the validity of the page. What makes it even more bizarre is that she studied law, nogal, at the University of South Africa (Unisa). The intro of her profile also reads “helping people. Those who can’t reach the maximum points of the National Senior Certificate”. According to the message she posted on Saturday, 19 August at 5.07pm, a certificate will set you back R1 800.

The Record tried to report the matter to Umalusi, the Council for Quality Assurance in General and Further Education and Training, but was referred to the police.
It is uncertain whether it some kind of hoax, but the Record has messaged the person to find out how to obtain such a certificate.
We will keep our readers posted.
