I did the registration and got to the point of payment. The reason why payment should only be done online is so as not to release bank details.

Also, if you choose to pay by card, the payment page displays Vogue Web Solutions which is Voguepay.

The site is hosted by Unified Layer

- A real government organization wont be using different company name at the footer to credit the company that made the site.
- A government site I believe wont be made in a week and it is publishing scholarship.
- Scholarships dont require payment before candidates apply
- Phone number on website host information is labelled a different company

Confirmed fraud.

After you pay the page stops working.
After some days or weeks, the site goes offline and another one will be created.
