Beware Of Scam Alert- EFCC Warns Nigerians
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has warned Nigerians to beware of a scam alert that purportedly emanated from the EFCC HELP DESK Headquarters, Jabi-Abuja.
In a statement by its Head of Media and Publicity, Wilson Uwujaren, on Monday, the Commission maintained that it has no such desk and that any information which supposedly emanated from the said EFCC HELP DESK did not originate from the EFCC.
“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.
“We urge the public to be circumspect and cross-check any doubtful information with the Commission.”
He further noted that the Commission can be reached through the hotline: +2348093322644; or by email: info@efcc.gov.ng.
Messages can also be sent to the Commission’s verified social media platforms – Twitter, Facebook and Instagram @officialefcc.
