Disregard Trending Messages On 5G Migration – Police
The Nigeria Police Force National Cyber crime Centre (NPF-NCCC) has warned members of the public to be wary and disregard messages being circulated especial on Whats app, on the commencement of 5G migration.
A statement released on Wednesday, by CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, Force Public Relations Officer (PRO), said the message did not emanate from the Nigeria Police Force but from cyber criminals and therefore warned Nigerians not to reveal their vital details to criminals.
He noted that guidelines on the roll-out and migration to the 5G network will be available in due time on authorized websites and verified social media handles of the NPF-NCCC, Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Telecom Companies, and other communication service providers.
The statement titled; Police Cybercrime Unit Warns Of Possible Phishing, Cyber Attacks, read;
The Director in charge of the NPF-NCCC, DCP Uche Ifeanyi Henry, has noted that the message did not emanate from the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre and therefore warns the general public to be wary as it is likely the handiwork of cyber criminals setting the grounds to fleece innocent and unsuspecting members of the public of their monies or to steal their identities.
The general public is hereby advised to discountenance the broadcast message and cease sharing such, as it is deceptive and misleading. Genuine guidelines on the roll-out and migration to the 5G network will be available in due time on authorized websites and verified social media handles of the NPF-NCCC, Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Telecom Companies, and other communication service providers.

Thank you for your sharing. I am worried that I lack creative ideas. It is your article that makes me full of hope. Thank you. But, I have a question, can you help me?
