Just talk to him about it. Don't be accusatory - just ask questions and find out what he did and why he did it. Sounds like he is a good kid - he knows if he did something wrong (if he did) - he probably doesn't need you telling him that - he will likely arrive at that conclusion if you just talk to him. That is if he did anything wrong.

I have a college freshman and 2 in high school - haven't heard of them using such a service, but I certainly wouldn't consider it a surprise to hear that a teacher recommended it. From what I can see of some of our teachers - it is in their best interests that their students get good grades - not that they necessarily learn anything. They get 2nd and 3rd chances to 'fix' wrong answers on tests, get 'extra credit' for doing something totally unrelated to the subject matter, etc.
