SCAM ALERT: EFCC Raises Alarm Over Fake Recruitment

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Saturday urged the public to discredit issues bothering on job employment by the anti graft agency, saying “EFCC is not recruiting.

 

 

Wilson Uwujaren,   Head, Media and Publicity of the anti graft agency,  disclosed this  in a statement made available to newsmen.

 

According to him, scammers bent on defrauding hapless job seekers, have been active in the social media, providing link for unsuspecting members of the public seeking employment into the EFCC  and to obtain, “EFCC Recruitment Form 2021/2022 and Guidelines Form and apply for the ongoing EFCC recruitment 2021”.

 

 

The statement added that “EFCC wishes to alert the public about fake EFCC Recruitment Form 2021 circulating in the social media, and to warn that the Commission is currently not recruiting. ”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The spokesman noted that fraudsters are also circulating forged Offer of Employment Letters, purporting same to be from the EFCC, and extorting members of the public.

 

 

He maintained that, there is no ongoing recruitment in the EFCC, adding that the purported ‘EFCC Recruitment Form 2021’ as well as the ‘official recruitment portal’ and ‘Offer of Employment Letters’ are non-existent.

 

“For the avoidance of doubt, recruitment into the EFCC is a structured, transparent and merit-driven process which is always heavily advertised through the mass media and the Commission’s social media platforms.

 

“It is highly automated, with no place for the so-called Employment Form.

 

He said  EFCC is on the trail of the scammers behind the devious scheme as no efforts will be spared to bring them to justice.
