The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has debunked viral information on social media that it is currently recruiting through a dubious EFCC recruitment 2023/2024 application portal dated April 7, 2023.
The commission stated that the fraudsters, who are yet to begin the process, nevertheless, went further to provide a link on how to apply, and urged members of the public to “share to other WhatsApp groups to help others”.
This was disclosed on the Commission’s website on Monday.
It added that the fraudsters mischievously added career to the Commission’s Website address to read www.efcc.gov.ng/career, giving semblance to the genuineness of their schemes.
While warning members of the public not to be deceived, it not note that the information shared on social media is fake.
It added that information about the commission’s activities, including job openings, can be obtained from its official website, www.efcc.gov.ng.
“The attention of the EFCC, has been drawn to some information circulating in the social media, inviting unsuspecting applicants to submit applications through a dubious EFCC Recruitment 2023/2024 Application Portal dated 7th April, 2023.
“The Commission wishes to notify the public that it is currently not recruiting. Any information to the contrary circulating in the social media is false and the handiwork of mischief makers aimed at defrauding hapless job seekers,” part of the statement read.
