Because they are buying a credential.

  Yes, but the credential is supposedly tied to actual abilities that matter. If they use their fraudulent credential to get a job and then perform well, then the material really was pointless and the system really is a big show without substance. I can hardly fault someone for gaming such a system. On the other hand, if they fail miserably because they lack relevant skills, then they didn't really prosper from their cheating.
