The National Examinations Council (NECO) has alerted the public to the activities of fraudsters operating fake online recruitment portals designed to deceive teachers seeking appointment as examination supervisors for the 2026 Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) Internal.
In a statement issued on Tuesday by its Acting Director of Information and Public Relations, Azeez Sani, the examination body warned teachers and other members of the public to disregard websites demanding payments or personal information under the guise of recruiting supervisors.
According to NECO, the fraudulent portals are requesting applicants to upload academic credentials and make payments before being considered for appointment, a practice it described as false, illegal and unauthorized.
