<p>So there's this one student that I know for a fact that has hacked into our teacher's computer and has access to the teacher's test. I have seen him do it but I don't have a picture or anything to back up what I say. What do I do? Because he's getting all 100's while many of us are struggling to get a 100%. He's done it many times but I don't want to be the "snitch".</p>
<p>thanks </p>
<p>Hmm. You could anonymously tell the teacher with a note or email. He/she would definitely keep a closer eye on their computer from then on. You could be so bold as to directly tell the student or the teacher about it, but honestly, I wouldn’t have the guts to do that.</p>
<p>I think this definitely warrants telling the teacher. I don’t bother telling on students if they just look on others’ tests occasionally, but hacking onto the teacher’s computer and getting 100s on every test is extremely unfair and warrants letting the teacher know. Just anonymously write the teacher a note, or if you want, tell him/her in person. You’re not being a snitch; the student’s completely in the wrong. </p>

I think that’s illegal, so it’s more serious than (say) looking up answers on your phone during a test. If you can’t prove it was him it won’t do you much good to specifically say it was him, but I second @awakeningvenus’s recommendation to write an anonymous note. </p>
<p>Yup. Tell the teacher.</p>
<p>thanks! but the thing is… nobody believes me…
because he always fixes a teacher’s computer, everybody believes he is one of those “goody two-shoes”
I actually DID write a letter and confronted the teacher but nothing happened…
this is why I came here</p>
<p>Aw, I wish I knew what to tell you. I know what it’s like to have people cheating around you. The valedictorian of the senior class cheated all the time in AP Biology, but then again, cheating is frequent at my school because a lot of tests are taken on school laptops. </p>
<p>Yeah, that’s tough. Hmm, is there absolutely no evidence at all?</p>
<p>Go to the teacher first. This is a lesson in “chain of command observance”. Others who should become involved are the head security officer and principal at your school. But let the teacher, and only the teacher, know first. Maybe he’ll have a test trick up his sleeve to mislead the perp…</p>
<p>Is the hacker the kind of student that would be suspected of doing what he is doing?</p>
<p>unfortunately no… every teacher asks him about a computer problem… and then he will have access to all teacher’s’ files… and the best part is… he already has everything on his phone… he showed it to me </p>
<p>Maybe try having him send it to you in an email or something then show it to your teacher. Or tell the teacher that it’s in his phone and see if they’ll check. </p>
