Nigeria’s anti-graft agency has warned citizens against falling for the tricks of scammers by revealing the official Facebook account of Abdulrasheed Bawa.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Sunday said the following Facebook Groups and accounts are fake: ABDULRASHEED BAWA. (EFCC CHAIRMAN) Public group, EFCC-BOSS Abdulrasheed, bawa 1, @abdulrasheed bawa, @Abdulrasheed Yahaya Bawa and @ Abdulrasheed Bawa purportedly belonging to the Executive Chairman of the Commission, Mr. Abdulrasheed Bawa.
“The impostors behind the fake accounts are bent on deceiving unsuspecting Nigerians into believing that they are genuine Facebook accounts of the EFCC boss.
“There are several fake social media accounts supposedly belonging to the EFCC chairman and despite repeated disclaimer, the figures behind the identity theft are unrelenting.
“To foreclose further cloning of Bawa’s Facebook account, the Commission is constrained to make public, the personal Facebook account of the EFCC chair.
EFCC says he has one Facebook account which is, @AbdulRasheed Bawa.
“Members of the public are enjoined to treat any other account supposedly belonging to the EFCC chairman as fake, and stop further dealings with such platforms.
“The public should be guided and avoid the risk of falling victim of scam.”
