The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has distanced itself from a fraudulent letter being circulated by unknown persons, titled \u201cCertificate of Site Ownership\u201d for clearance of \u201cMast Transmission Antenna\u201d allegedly issued by the NCC.<\/p>\n

\"\"The commission,\u00a0which said it came across the information through its\u00a0social listening and environmental surveillance, said the\u00a0letter purported that the letter\u00a0claimed that the commission had conducted an inspection on a certain site for \u201c9-Mobile Telecommunications Company G.P.R.S\u201c. The fraudsters also gave conditions that the unsuspecting recipient of the letter would meet to make the certificate valid and effective for use by \u201c10th November, 2022\u201d.<\/p>\n

The commission said several variants of the fraudulent letter may have been sent to individuals and organisations, with the intent to defraud, using the name of the commission.<\/p>

\u201cFor the avoidance of doubt, the design and format of the forged letterhead bears no similarity with those of the commission. The department quoted in the fraudulent letter is non-existent at the commission. The signatory to the letter is also not known to the commission,\u201d a\u00a0statement by the commission\u2019s director of public affairs, Reuben Muoka said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
