The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has said that it does not own a Tik-Tok account, as it warned the public against engaging with any such an account bearing its logo.
A statement by the commission`s Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, said suspected fraudsters, on thursday, “organised a live session on a Tik-Tok platform using the Commission’s logo to generate traffic and defraud unsuspecting members of the public.
The fraudsters used six fake accounts all bearing the logo of the Commission and names of non-existent directorates.”
Mr Oyewale stated that 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.”
According to him, the Commission has no Tik-Tok account “and the public is advised to discountenance any such account bearing the insignia of the Commission.”
