JAMB Denies Fradulent SMS To Candidates And Centres

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has dissociated itself from an unauthorized text message which had been in circulation and is aimed at misleading and defrauding unsuspecting members of the public.
The registrar and chief executive officer of JAMB, Prof Dibu Ojerinde, who disclosed that the number is 08095515420 said JAMB is most embarrassed as the message tried to associate him with its illegal activities.
Prof Ojerinde in a press statement made available to LEADERSHIP said JAMB wishes to draw the attention of the public ‘to the illegal activities of some faceless and fraudulent activities of persons who have been circulating SMS purportedly asking parents and guardians to contact EL’ Technologies for non-existing biometric solution for UTME in Abuja.
It further revealed that the message reads thus: This is to notify all accredited centres in Abuja with 10 digits access codes that they are to contact EL-Technologies for all their biometric enquiries regarding the 2012 UTME offline registration’.
Prof Ojerinde also called and appealed to the Police high command in the FCT to help track down the fraudsters and use them as deterrents for others who might want to practise such illegal activities.
