Jamb 2017 - Beware of Fraudsters!

Jamb 2017 - Beware of Fraudsters!
Please be informed that the Joint Admission Matriculation Board has commenced registration of students for the 2017 examination. It is important to note here that fraudsters are on the prowl to make away with people’s fortune hence the need to write this and create awareness.

As at the time of writing this, many have already fallen victims of scam in which their hard earned monies have been carted away by these syndicates of cybercrime. It is against this back drop I am sharing this for you to know that the original Jamb portal is www.jamb.gov.ng , don’t make any mistake about it. The second thing is that, you are not to pay money to anybody until you have created a profile and from there a code will be generated and that is what you will use to go to bank and pay the bank will generate a pin code for you.
Don’t buy any scratch card! Don’t pay money into any individual account! Don’t visit any portal if it is not the one above! To be forewarned is to be forearmed!  Please share and pass it around.
