If their PHP "exam" is > anything like this one, though, the final certification True...the only good thing is they are going after the dolts for only 10$, with new users coming on the net everyday they are trying their luck.

Cant really blame these guys for trying , but I doubt they will get many people as a person who goes for their "PHP exam" would know programming and computers...which will tell them pretty soon this is a scam.
