- Entreprise commerciale plus ou moins légitime qui vend des diplômes de toutes sortes pour lesquels à peu près aucun travail intellectuel n'est requis. On se procure de tels diplômes pour rire, mais aussi à des fins lucratives. Posséder un grade universitaire, même si on l'a obtenu contre espèces sonnantes et trébuchantes plutôt que par un travail acharné, vaut souvent une promotion ou une augmentation de salaire. Ces faux diplômes peuvent ainsi coûter des milliers de dollars aux employeurs et gouvernements. http://www.sceptiques.qc.ca/dictionnaire - by FX Fraipont (X)

- Bløffuniversitet / diplommølle
"Det er to hovedgrupper av falske utdanningsdokumenter:
* Vitnemål som gir seg ut for å være utstedt ved et universitet, ved at de ligner de autentiske vitnemålene.
* Vitnemål fra institusjoner som bare utsteder dokumentene uten å tilby utdanning. Disse institusjonene omtales ofte som bløffuniversitet eller diplommøller og dokumentene er for så vidt ekte nok, men har ingenting med universitetsutdanning og akademiske grader å gjøre."
