Beware of scam alert, fake calls, EFCC cautions Nigerians

EFCC spokesperson Wilson Uwujaren on Tuesday in a statement said that the agency has no help desk, hence calls from such quarters are fake.

“The attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been drawn to a Scam Alert, trending in the social media, which purportedly emanated from EFCC Help Desk Headquarters, Jabi-Abuja,” Uwujaren stated.JAMB Portal

“For the avoidance of doubt, EFCC has no such desk, and any information which supposedly emanated from the said EFCC HELP DESK, did not originate from the EFCC.

“The use of EFCC by the authors of the Scam Alert, smacks of sinister motives and it is important that the public is put on notice, as the Commission will not be liable should anyone becomes a victim of what is obviously a scam.

The EFCC spokesperson urged the public to be circumspect and cross-check any doubtful information with the Commission.NYSC Portal
