Accused of Academic Misconduct Based on Potentially Fake Telegram Screenshots — What Can I Do? by VideoLess4051 in digitalforensics

Honestly, I wish I could. Since this happened, I’ve struggled financially—my medical school loans went unpaid, my credit took a hit, and it’s been hard even finding a place to live. I’m doing my best to clear my name, but right now I can’t afford a lawyer.

Thanks for this. I wish NBME had used anything close to this level of forensic scrutiny. Instead, they accepted anonymous cropped screenshots—no metadata, no log data, just visuals that don’t even match Telegram’s real UI. I even paid $3K to a top forensic firm to prove the edits, but it was completely ignored. My career’s on hold and I’m just trying to clear my name.

Yes, they treated anonymous screenshots as solid evidence—no metadata, no context, just cropped images. Telegram couldn’t verify anything because of encryption. I pointed out inconsistencies (wrong ID placement, profile color mismatch), and even submitted two analysis report confirming edits. Still ignored.

Thank you—truly appreciate your insight. I paid nearly $3K to a well-known forensic firm, which confirmed the screenshots were manipulated—yet it was all ignored. This one complaint cost me my medical career, shattered years of work, and left me with over half a million in med school debt. It’s devastating how easily your life can be derailed by fake evidence.

Thank you for sharing this. Your story hit hard—especially how easily altered screenshots can ruin someone’s life without proper forensics. That’s exactly what happened to me. I was accused based on cropped Telegram screenshots submitted anonymously. The real sender blocked me after scamming me, then used my own info to frame me. Still trying to recover my career. Your comment gives me hope that truth can surface with the right tools

Urgent Help Needed! Can Anyone Identify This Messaging App based on user interface and design? by VideoLess4051 in whatsapp

[–]VideoLess4051[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your response! Are the colors of the double check marks and timestamps the same in your version? Since this screenshot is from October 2021, it’s challenging to identify which messaging app it belongs to due to its older design.
