The Head of Media of the board, Dr Fabian Benjamin, gave the caution on Wednesday, July 25, 2018,  in an interview in Abuja.

He said the caution became necessary as several candidates have complained about the high amount of money some cybercafe operators are charging them to upload their WAEC results on JAMB website.

Fabian said, ''not only do they charge them high, they also convince candidates who had already uploaded their results on the site to do same again.

“Candidates who have had their results uploaded at the point of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) registration need not do that again, except for those who registered with awaiting results.

“Those are the ones allowed to upload now on our website. “This upload should not cost more than N100.

“No cyber café should charge more than this amount, however, if candidates can locate any of our Computer Based Test (CBT) Centres, it is free to make the upload there,”

JAMB has announced that  post UTME screening will start from August to December in all universities across the country.
