The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has dismissed report of its purported ownership of a Tik-Tok platform.
On Thursday, the EFCC stated that it was the activities of some fraudsters who organised a live session on a Tik-Tok platform using the Commission’s logo to generate traffic and defraud unsuspecting members of the public.
“The fraudsters used six fake accounts all bearing the logo of the Commission and names of non-existent directorates”, Head, Media & Publicity, Dele Oyewale said in a statement.
The statement went to say, “Among the names and logos used for the fraudulent live session are: “EFCC of Nigeria”, “EFCC Lagos”, “EFCC Delta”, “EFCC of Benin”,” EFCC of Jos,” and “EFCC Saga.”
“The Commission has no Tik-Tok account and the public is advised to discountenance any such account bearing the insignia of the Commission”.
