‘The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, 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’.

Penpushing further reports that, the agency said fraudsters are determined to defraud innocent job seekers, and resolved to make use of social media as bait to get at the innocent members of the public.

‘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, to obtain, “EFCC Recruitment Form 2021/2022 and Guidelines Form and apply for the ongoing EFCC recruitment 2021”.

The statement added that, the fraudsters are also circulating forged Offer of Employment Letters, purporting same to be from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC), and extorting members of the public.

‘The public should note that, there is no ongoing recruitment in the EFCC. The purported ‘EFCC Recruitment Form 2021′ as well as the ‘official recruitment portal’ and ‘Offer of Employment Letters’ are non –existent’ Uwujaren stated,.

‘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’.

Penpushing also reports that, the statement disclosed that,the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC) is on the trail of the scammers behind this devious scheme, stressing that  no efforts will be spared to bring them to justice.

‘The Commission urges the public to cross check any doubtful information with the agency through: [email protected]’,  Uwujaren emphasized
