The Police Service Commission has dismissed reports circulating across social media and unverified websites claiming that it has opened a portal for recruitment into the Nigeria Police Force.
In a statement released on Monday via its official website, the Commission described the publications as fake, warning that they were the handiwork of fraudsters attempting to deceive and exploit unsuspecting Nigerians.
“The general public is hereby informed that these publications are fake and entirely misleading. They are the handiwork of fraudsters attempting to exploit innocent citizens,” the statement read.
The PSC stressed that it has not commenced any recruitment exercise and has not opened any portal for such purposes.
According to the Commission, any authentic recruitment announcement will be made exclusively through approved channels, including advertisements in reputable national newspapers, notices on its verified website (www.psc.gov.ng), and formal press statements.
“We urge Nigerians to rely only on information published through these official channels. Any recruitment portal not listed on our website is fraudulent and should be reported to the police,” the Commission added.
The PSC advised the public to ignore the fake recruitment claims to avoid falling victim to online scams.
