Bank of America Credit card department,
I came across - while searching for programs to supplement and expand on web - skills. With prolific overwhelmingly positive reviews seen on various sources ( - ) from previous students claiming successful outcomes, including internship placements and job offers, I applied. I had an interview with - -, as he introduced himself, whom I now know to be - - -. As per the website, students were promised at least - mentor sessions, interview preparation help, and further assistance until jobs were secured. Upon a successful interview, I paid the tuition amount of $5900.00 in full up front via credit card through - ( payment processor ) ; at this time there were no financial assistance plans in place. Every week, the other students and I would arrange our one-on-one sessions with -, and lessons would be conducted through a video-conferencing platform called -. Things seemed to be going well, with more students enrolling - enough for - to start looking for more instructors and an executive assistant.
there was no reason for me to be skeptical. It was around - when - began to skip some of his scheduled sessions with his students, which elicited concerns among students. A few became increasingly worried about his absences and decided to ask for a refund and some left bad reviews for the school. In one particular refund case, the student left bad reviews of the school on multiple sources. It is my personal opinion that this notably triggered - subsequently more - behavior. - threatened to put this student 's personal information online and ensure no one would hire this person - it escalated enough where the now-former student hired a lawyer. Further indication of his troubling behavior was his then asking students to help him create a website to defame the student. Luckily the website was never actually created and put online. - -, 2016 was the last time any of us saw - online as our teacher. Several students expressed - had not shown up for their sessions, nor had he warned he would be absent. This prompted our online search for -. His executive assistant, who was also blindsided, realised passwords for accounts shared had been changed. This was the realisation point that we were now victims of fraud. Further research revealed he is on the Sheriff 's Most Wanted list in - County and left the US to live in -, bouncing between - - and -. We have established many reviews have been falsely created by -, and have reached out to known contacts, family, and are currently working to alert the correct authorities. As far as we know, he has fled with the money of possibly - or more students without delivering all that was promised.
