A total of 46 people have been punished for their involvement in two impostor scandals in East China’s Shandong province that involved life-altering identity thefts for college admission, local authorities reported Monday.
Chen Chunxiu, the daughter of a low-income family, was first to expose the scam after she discovered she had been admitted to her dream school, Shandong University of Technology (SDUT), 16 years ago, but her place was taken by an impostor from the same county.
