A Guangdong Province student sitting in the National College Entrance Exam on Tuesday morning leaked the composition topic via his mobile phone and it appeared on the Internet shortly after the Chinese language test began, Nanfang Daily reported today.

Guangdong Examination Authority immediately alerted police who soon tracked down a Guangzhou college student surnamed Ma, who posted the topic on the Weibo.com, the most popular microblogging site in China.

Ma confessed that he plotted a fraud scheme with his former classmate surnamed Chen who was taking the exam in Shantou City. Chen brought his cell phone secretly to the examination room and snapped a photo of his test paper as soon as it was handed out and sent it to Ma who twittered it to a ghostwriter surnamed Yan who would write the composition for Chen.

Authorities said anyone who is found cheating in the National College Entrance Exam will be punished according to the law.
