59. Instead, Hall’s purported corrections contain additional false and misleading
statements calculated to further confuse and deceive consumers. For example, Hall claims
that he made his previous false statements about his LSAT scores in “Good Faith” and
genuinely “believed . . . that [he] earned three perfect LSAT scores.” He claims that he
was “certain” that he “had not only earned a 180 [on the September 2009 LSAT, but] had
also not missed any questions.” And he even claims that his forgeries were “righteous”
because he sincerely believed the false information they contained. On information and
belief, Hall’s claims of sincerity and good faith are completely false; he made his false
statements and falsified the supporting documentation with full knowledge that his claimed
score of 180 on the September 2009 LSAT was fictitious, and with the intention of
deceiving consumers of test preparation services.
60. In addition to containing false and misleading statements, Defendants’
purported corrective postings are deficient in at least the following other respects:
(a) The purported corrections have not been disseminated widely enough or
with sufficient prominence to reach most of the consumers who have been misled by
Defendants. For example, the corrective posting on Velocity’s website is not readily
visible to website visitors, but is instead accessible only via a link near the bottom of a
subsidiary page. Also, on information and belief, Defendants have not directly notified
past and present customers who have relied on, and been deceived by, Defendants’
misrepresentations.
(b) Defendants’ purported corrections are not clear and readily
understandable, but are instead confusing and convoluted. On information and belief,
Defendants have intentionally tried to obscure the true facts and discourage readers from
discovering them. For example, Hall warns near the outset of his corrective posting, “What
follows is a long-form recounting, . . . a little bit of history, a little bit of soap opera . . . .
Some of you will find it interesting, some of you won’t. . . .” (http://www.top-law-
