The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has warned the public about fraudsters using its logo and name to operate fake TikTok accounts aimed at deceiving unsuspecting individuals.
According to the EFCC, on Thursday, February 27, 2025, these fraudsters hosted a live session on TikTok to attract traffic and defraud users. They reportedly managed six fake accounts, falsely presenting them as official EFCC handles. Some of the fraudulent account names include:
EFCC of Nigeria
EFCC Lagos
EFCC Delta
EFCC of Benin
EFCC of Jos
EFCC Saga
The Commission has clarified that it does not have an official TikTok account and has urged the public to disregard any EFCC-affiliated accounts on the platform.
