Codesmith is still a scam

I know some students definitely exaggerated their experience because they were desperate. Unfortunately, the exaggeration probably became more common as the market became worse. I don't really understand how Codesmith can verify that experience as paid though as Michael claims.

I'm not allowed to share primary new documentary because of ongoing legal matters, but what was reported publicly on Reddit about these matters can be found here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/codingbootcamp/comments/1e7n7y1/breaking\_news\_course\_report\_bootcamp\_review/](https://www.reddit.com/r/codingbootcamp/comments/1e7n7y1/breaking_news_course_report_bootcamp_review/)

I was defending Michael, but I agree 100% that if someone misrepresents themselves, and Codesmith does not advocate this, it's wrong to attack Codesmith. If this was the case, Michael should apologize for this specific act.

I can’t comment on any of this at the moment due to legal reasons. I’ve been advised not to make any further statements about Codesmith or its programs while this matter is active. Anyone who wants context can look at what I’ve previously said directly and review the public sources I cited at the time. I can’t add or restate anything beyond that right now.
