If I sell a new essay to someone and they submit it as their own work, is their any danger to myself? That is, if they get done for cheating and mention my name, will I get in trouble too?

hmm.. i'd say its most likely to be just them that gets into trouble as theyre the ones that will have submitted something that isnt theirs... suppose you could get into trouble for selling it, but you wont be cheating if it's a new essay.
Hope you're not seriously thinking of this, plagiarism really devaluates the work of other hard working students.
But i dont know it works or not because there is a very big industory working out there where people are doing assignment of students and non or u can say 99% of them never get caught for such act, i know few of such sites personally where this thing is happening and people are paying for doing their uni assignments.
My understanding has always been that you definitely can't give someone work you have already submitted yourself for credit. It seems rather risky writing an essay for someone else within your own department, or even university because the internal system has potential to punish you.
I can't necessarily see how you would get punished as well if it was outside your university/college.
what do you think? you're selling it knowing they'll submit it as their own work.
YES.
I do, thanks.
Fuck off!
I love the net, years ago when i was in school i couldn't be bothered writing my own coursework so i'd just download someone elses!
I was offered to do the same recently; I refused because of principle.
Fraud is only wrong if you get caught.
Theft is only wrong if you get caught.
Assault is only wrong if you get caught.
Rape is only wrong if you get caught.
Murder is only wrong if you get caught.
Puh-lease. What a pathetic attitude.
Cheating is wrong and morally and spiritually bankrupt because anybody can do it. Anybody can get a friend or an internet company or - God forbid - a Wikipedia page to do their work for them. And it'll look robotic, be written in an awful style and be tedious, full of secondhand thinking, received opinion, yawn-inducing nonsense, because real good work doesn't get shared with idiots for $5.99 or whatever. It only benefits the sort of people who are fine with being lazy and/or rubbish at everything - no thirst for learning, no desire to improve at anything. And one day they'll realise it's not so cool to tell everyone they never worked for anything.
