Pretty Customs Official Whose Pictures Are Being Used By Scammers, Cries Out. by ChangeIsCostant: 7:35am On Jun 11, 2018
A Customs official has been forced to react out as her pictures are being used by scammers regularly to defraud unsuspecting victims. National Helm earlier reported how a man raised an alarm after falling victim to the scam of a fake Customs official on Facebook.

It was revealed that a particular lady, who goes by the name Ademola Victoria on Facebook, with a profile picture which depicts her as a customs woman, has been discovered to be nothing but an Internet fraudster. The fake account holder has been sending friend requests to people, and whoever falls into that carefully arranged scam by confirming her as a friend is liable to automatically become a prospective victim.

A young graduate, who ignorantly fell victim to the scam, narrated how the scammer who posed as a Customs official gained access to his information on Facebook in the process of looking for a Customs job.

The Customs official identified as Izekor Helen Nosa whose pictures were used for the scam has reached out to National Helm. Below is the mail she sent in;

Good Day everyone;

My Name is Izekor Helen Nosa an Assistant Superintendent of Customs II working with the Nigeria Customs Service. Please be informed that Some social media fraudsters have been using my pictures to advertise Customs Recruitment and Sale of Customs Seized Vehicles..

Please be informed that I am not in any way connected to this act. It is also worthy of note that the Nigeria Custom Service does NOT in any way advertise recruitment or sell seized cars on Social Media. I hereby use this medium to inform the general public to ignore any post using my picture or name to advertise the sale of any vehicle by the Custom in an attempt to defraud innocent members of the public.

However, the Service and relevant authorities are making efforts to track down those involved in this social media fraud..
