Scam Alert!!!!! by docadams: 8:23pm On Jun 04, 2015 |
I was relaxing at home today after a tasking day at work, occasionally, daydreaming of myself holidaying in a Caribbean beach, when I got this text: "STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL:Dr xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx,You are directed by the APC CAMPAIGN ORGANIZATION to submit your CV with recent passport photograph including GSM telephone numbers and email via apcscreeningcommittee@gmail.com and apply for any of the listed federal appointment,i.e Ministerial, Special Adviser/Assistant, Board chairman/secretary/Member.Best Wishes. Dr(Mrs).Favour Idiodie JP(Screening c'mttee secretary).TEL:09091880617" Soon after, a colleague walked in and I showed him the text. Surprisingly, he started drawing up the necessary 'rules of engagement' to get a special assistant slot. I just burst out laughing. Of course he is PDP, full blooded. I quickly went to the website given and got several warnings from the progressive party. The one below surmises all. APC demands arrest of job scammers using party name MAY 12, 2015 : OUR CORRESPONDENT The All Progressives Congress has challenged security agencies and the telecommunications service providers to help fish out those who have being seeking to defraud Nigerians by asking them to apply for federal appointments in the incoming APC Federal Government through a non-existent APC screening committee. In a statement in Abuja on Tuesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the call has become necessary as the scammers had persisted in their fraudulent ways, despite previous warnings by the party for them to desist. ”These ‘419ners’ have a telephone number, 08107400745, an email address ( apcscreeningcommittee@gmail.com ) and a front (Dr. Favour Idiodie), who is supposedly the Screening Committee Secretary. It should therefore not be difficult for the security agencies, working with the service providers, to fish them out and to make them face the full wrath of the law,” it said. APC repeated its earlier warning, contained in a statement of April 21, 2015, where it warned Nigerians to beware of such fraudulent claims. It said the party had not set up any committee to which Nigerians should submit their CVs for screening and possible federal appointments. ”As we wrote in our earlier statement, even when it is obvious that those behind this appointment scam are merely seeking to swindle innocent Nigerians, some desperate and gullible persons may still fall prey to their evil machinations, hence we have decided to once again alert Nigerians,” the party said. www.punchng.com/.../apc-demands-arres... |
