Online recruitment message fake, EFCC cautions Nigerians

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has asked Nigerians to ignore a message circulating online that the agency is currently recruiting.

The EFCC said the message was fake and should be ignored.

The anti-graft agency disclosed this in a statement titled, “No ‘Ongoing Recruitment’ in EFCC” by its Head Head, Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, on Tuesday.

It added that the agency is on the trail of those spreading false information and will bring them to book

The statement read, “The attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been drawn to some online advertisements linking the Commission with phoney “ongoing recruitments”.

“The Commission is not recruiting at the moment.

“The public is enjoined to ignore any advertisement of recruitment not publicly announced by the EFCC.

“Operatives of the commission are on the trail of fraudsters offering misleading information in this regard and they will be brought to book.”
