    I paid this guy that goes by the name of **** which is his fake name a lot of money to train me and help me get my CDL. Come to find out **** doesnt know anything about trucks and is running a big scam of an operation over there. He doesnt reply to messages Ive only trained 4times in 3 months and he isnt responding to my messages anymore he took my money and did not help me with what I paid him to do. Im not the only person hes took advantage of I spoke with several other students and they all had similar concerns. That hes not teaching anything. He runs a fake ******** page and hides all the reviews so people dont know what they are getting themselves into.

    Hi ***********,

    I'm sorry to hear what about the situation, nevertheless, **** does not work for Pennies Trucking Academy, and our school is not officially open yet.

    I would suggest you try to reach out to him directly. Our school has no association with him, we just share the same building. I would like this complaint be removed because

    it is a defamation of our school. We did not receive any money from you since Pennies Trucking is not operational yet.

    Thanks and I wish your situation is resolved. In the meantime I'd ask BBB to pull this complaint down since we are not affiliated with him.

    I'm insisting that this information be removed and disregarded ASAP. Please have the complaint providing evidence where PENNIES ACADEMY received any payment. Also provide test messages if i ever directed you in anything other than giving you ****** number. The said person did not pay me or my school. Just because we share same office location does nor mean I run ****** business. I have attached a pic of my conversation. **** is an online platform accessible to any one who wants to join trucking the whole of ***. It's not tied to a particular personnel.
