Four baggage screeners at New York's LaGuardia Airport have claimed that they were given answers to questions on a certification test just moments before they were required to take the exam.

The screeners - who

do not wish to be identified - have revealed that an instructor would teach for several hours and then read and answer several multiple-choice questions, which appeared on the test administered moments later, according to Newsday.

The screeners are required to pass the test to be certified in using bomb detection machines.
