WAEC cautions candidates to beware of result scams

Meanwhile, WAEC has also on its Twitter handle discouraged candidates from patronising online adverts about results upgrade.

That’s a scam. There’s no such thing as ‘upgrade’ of result. They can concoct a result & give to you but it’ll be different from what we have on our database. A lot of their victims have lost their jobs & turned back at Embassies during verification. Be wise.
