FRAUDSTERS NOW HAVE A NEW METHOD OF DEFRAUDING PEOPLE THROUGH THE RECENT EFCC RECRUITMENT EXERCISE.{READ}.

                    It has come to the knowledge of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,EFCC,that some unscrupulous members of the public have been defrauding unsuspecting Nigerians in the on-going recruitment exercise of the Commission.The modus operandi of the scammers is to request for applications from job-seeking Nigerians and later inform the applicants to pay N49,000 {Forty Nine Thousand Naira only} as processing fee.Thereafter,the ''successful candidate'' were asked to pay another N48,000 {Forty Eight Thousand Naira only} into an account for accomodation and transportation.A poorly written appointment letter purportedly from a non-existent office of Director General,Ibrahim Lamorde and dated 03/07/2016,sent to one Ubong Aniefiok Bassey reads: ''This is to inform you that you have been offered a job into the nigeria E.F.C.C,all applicant that have applied 2016/2017 nigeria EFCC form are expected to come down to the head office at Abuja on 15/07/2016.
Applicants are to pay his/her prescribed fees which is N49,000.0...All pplicants are to come down to the head office at Abuja on 15/07/2017 with teller slip for the payment ...Congratulation''.
The Commission  does not and will never ask for money from prospective candidates in the ongoing recruitment exercise.While efforts are on to track those behind these nefarious activities,we urge members of the public to be vigilant,not to fall victim of these scammers.
