Dele Oyewale the commission’s spokesperson in a statement signed Thursday and made available to journalists disclosed that; the fraudsters used six fake accounts all bearing the logo of the Commission and names of non-existent directorates.
Among the names and logos used for the fraudulent live session are: “EFCC of Nigeria”, “EFCC Lagos”, “EFCC Delta”, “EFCC of Benin”,” EFCC of Jos,” and “EFCC Saga.”
The Commission has no Tik-Tok account and the public is advised to discountenance any such account bearing the insignia of the Commission.
