This is contained in a statement signed by the Head, Media and Publicity of the Commission, Mr Wilson Uwujaren, made available in Abuja.
According to the statement, the scam was to mislead vulnerable Nigerians and tarnish the reputation of the commission.
It stated that "the EFCC wishes to alert the general public about the activities of some unscrupulous elements who have cashed in on the plan by the Commission to recruit more personnel to defraud unsuspecting job seekers.
