The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has alerted Nigerians to a fraudulent recruitment advert currently circulating on social media.
According to the Commission, the fake advert claims that INEC is recruiting for various positions and directs unsuspecting applicants to a bogus portal, http://inecrecruitment.com
, to submit applications.
INEC stressed that it does not operate such a website and is not conducting any recruitment exercise at the moment.
In a strongly worded statement, the Commission urged the public to disregard the advert and avoid falling victim to criminal elements behind the scam.
“The Commission IS NOT recruiting. Do not fall victim to the antics of criminal elements,” the statement read.
INEC further advised Nigerians to always verify official information through its authentic communication channels before acting on any recruitment or related announcements.
