EFCC Warns Nigerians to Ignore Fake ‘Secret Recruitment’ Claim

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has denied rumours of a secret recruitment exercise. On Monday, the agency used its verified social media handle to share a graphic marked “FAKE NEWS” and warned the public not to be misled. The false post claimed recruitment had begun and that successful candidates would start training next month, urging job seekers to send anonymous messages for details. The commission said this scam mirrors previous false recruitment schemes by fraudsters and advised everyone to disregard any unverified notices.

What measures do you think EFCC should take to spread the word faster about fake recruitment rumours?

I agree, they should partner with telecoms for mass SMS alerts and push updates through verified social media handles.

It's surprising that rumours about a secret EFCC hiring exercise gained so much traction before any verification.

I'm not convinced one social media graphic is enough to stop people from believing persistent fake claims.

Always check EFCC's official channels yourself before responding to any recruitment post, abeg verify every claim.
