I have been working in a company since February 2011. I submitted a fake degree at the time of joining, but later in December 2011, I completed my degree. Now, I have received an offer from another company, and they are requesting my documents. How should I proceed in this situation? Please advise me on whether I should accept this offer or not.

Thank you very much, Simhan. I am ready to take a risk. I have an original degree and original experience which I am going to submit. What are the chances I have to save this job? How can I convince them? I am 27 years old and a B.E. graduate in ECE.

Please submit your original certificates. If any queries arise, try to convince them by stating that you had given a verbal assurance to your previous company about completing your degree within a specific period, and they had accepted it, and you have fulfilled your promise. If the new employer accepts this explanation, you may have a chance with them. Otherwise, you should continue with your current company.
Wishing you all the best.

Handling Job Offers with Ethical Concerns
Have you received an offer based on the experience shown in your CV? If so, you need to be prepared to demonstrate that experience. If not, there's no need to worry. However, remember that misrepresenting your qualifications is against the ethics of any company. They will likely hesitate before enrolling you.

Congratulations! You have just crossed the first line towards success. It requires tremendous courage to come out and openly say, "I made a mistake," but more importantly, to say, "I want to change for the better." This one move and the lessons that I hope you have learned in this phase will be the foundation for your success in the future.
Go ahead, accept the offer. You are a graduate now, and hence you would not be lying. If an offer stage is already reached, then I presume that they have already interviewed you, so the possibility of them inquiring about why an organization recruited a non-graduate is very remote.
Just be sure: Never ever repeat what you have done! You are lucky that you have got an opportunity to move forward... It could have been worse...
Be thankful for this blessing and move forward.
