The Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority's (VCAA) website has been hacked during the state's exam period. A hacker claimed to have accessed student papers and sold them to hundreds of students.
A spokesperson for the VCAA strongly refuted the hacker's claims, saying they were 'fabricated' and there was 'no evidence at all' that any VCE exams had been accessed or leaked.
Why this matters: The hack has caused concern among students who are already under stress during the exam period.
What this means for you: If you are a student taking VCE exams, be aware that there is no evidence to suggest your papers have been leaked. However, it's always a good idea to be cautious and not share any exam-related information online.
