"Who is smarter? You are!" - What made fakers fake?

To pay a tribute to shameless fakers? "No!". I am just making
fun of those smart asses who thinks they are too smart but I
also understand why they are faking. See an ad from such a
diploma mill:

'"Who is really smarter? You are the one called to the front of the
queue in airports; you are the one getting the free upgrade to first
class; you are the one sitting at the good table not too near the
band overlooking the river; you are the one dazzling your future
employers with your skills and abilities at an interview rather than
having your Resumé ditched by a computer programmed to scan
applications and send rejection slips to perfectly capable applicants
who happen not to have a degree; The benefits are endless."'
