Send a Corrupted File Instead

(This is not a joke)

Corrupted-Files.com is a web site that sells intentionally corrupted (or damaged) Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files.

Why the hell would someone want to buy a file that will not open?

To submit to a teacher/ professor. Sending a file that won’t open will allow a student to “meet” a deadline, while also buying them some extra time to actually finish the project.
