JAMB: Fraud alert candidates be on-guard




The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board (JAMB) Head of Information, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, yesterday said it had arrested operators of cyber  cafés for defrauding candidates of the ongoing Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for N10,000 to access information on their e-mails.

This cyber cafes operators hacked candidates e-mails and changed the passwords and the address of the mails of candidates such that any mail sent to candidates will get to them, then they will inturn sell the information to candidates.

“We also appeal to candidates not to allow cheats to defraud them as we have arrested cyber cafe operators who changed candidates email addresses and passwords  and ensure that all messages send to candidates get to them and in turn sale such information like examination notification for N10,000.

“It’s our humble expectation that a candidate aspiring to be a student in any tertiary institution should be able to operate an email. All information are send to their email addresses and also on our site for the public use,” he said.

He also said that JAMB did not post candidates out of their preferred exam centers as was reported in the news.

“Again we want to say that we did not post any candidate outside his or her preferred exam center as expressed in their application, contrary to reports in some quarters. Candidates are always allowed to make a choice of examination town while we allocate centres within the examination town chosen by a candidate,” he said.

Dr Fabian expressed his joy for the successful conduct of the UTME, which began on Saturday across 642 computer based centres (CBT).

He said: “We are happy that the 2017 UTME, which kicked off on Saturday, May 13, has been hitch-free so far and in line with the arrangements put in place for candidates to write the examination without stress.
“All negative speculation of shift, change of schedules etc over the ongoing 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculations Examinations (UTME) arefrom mischief-makers, who are desperate to create confusion before or during the exams, owing to personal and selfish interests that are detrimentalto the development of public examination and education.

“We thank all Nigerians who supported this drive. We promise that we will continue to fine-tune the process for the better. From the reports across the federation, there has not been any majorhitch on the ongoing UTME with over 1.7 million registered candidates captured for the examination.”
