    By Branwen Jeffreys and Edward Main - BBC News

    YouTube stars are being paid to sell academic cheating, a BBC investigation has found.

The BBC Trending investigation uncovered more than 1,400 videos with a total of more than 700 million views containing EduBirdie adverts selling cheating to students and school pupils.
