# 30566: Academic Fraud and Cheating Services Are Prohibited

Log Type: APPLICATION

Log Level: ERROR

## Description

This error applies to both Toll-Free Verification and A2P 10DLC registration.

Messaging that facilitates academic dishonesty is prohibited in your messaging campaign. This includes essay mills, exam help, ghostwriting, test answer sales, and impersonation services.

### Possible causes

* Your campaign promotes services that write custom academic essays, theses, or dissertations for students.
* Your messaging offers live exam assistance, test answer sales, or ghostwriting.

### Possible solutions

* Confirm that your use case does not involve academic dishonesty, such as essay writing, exam assistance, test answer sales, ghostwriting, or impersonation services.
* If your service is legitimate, update your campaign description and message samples to clearly describe your actual use case.
* Once your content no longer facilitates academic dishonesty, resubmit your registration for review.
