I wild guess would be fraudulent testing organizations which claim to
have been subject to fraud themselves, and the testing standards body
answered with some sort of regulation.
(For certain German language test instances at certain sites, there
used to me impossibly high participation numbers. The alleged
certificates of the results were probably simply forged, but that's
where I got the idea from.)
