The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has issued a warning to applicants of its ongoing recruitment process about fraudulent emails and messages.
These scams according to the Service, ask for payment, personal banking details, and confidential information, which the NCS never requests.
“For the avoidance of doubt, NCS does not request payment, personal banking details, or confidential information from applicants, nor does it engage with candidates through unofficial channels,” the agency emphasized.
The Service clarified that all communications are conducted exclusively via its authorized official platforms, including its help desk lines (0201889889 or 0201889888), email (info@custom.gov.ng), website ((link unavailable)), and verified social media handles including: Facebook: Nigeria Customs Service; Instagram: @official_customsng; Twitter: @CustomsNG; TikTok: @customsng.
Applicants are thus advised to disregard suspicious messages and report fraudulent activities to the appropriate authorities.
