The Police Service Commission PSC has issued a warning to the public after detecting fake online recruitment portals circulating across social media and unofficial websites. According to the Commission, these posts falsely claim that a new recruitment process into the Nigeria Police Force has started. The PSC described these publications as fake and created to mislead people. It added that the portals are being pushed by fraudsters who want to deceive and exploit unsuspecting citizens.
This is coming after viral claims on Monday that Police Service Commission PSC Recruitment is ongoing.
In the statement, the PSC explained that no recruitment exercise is currently ongoing and that the Commission has not opened any portal for such activity. It stressed that official announcements will only be made through approved channels when recruitment begins. These include advertisements in reputable national newspapers, verified updates on the Commission’s website at www.psc.gov.ng and official press releases from the PSC.
The public has been advised to ignore any recruitment information not released through these official platforms. The PSC cautioned citizens to avoid falling for scams and to ensure they depend solely on confirmed sources. It further noted that any recruitment portal not found on its official website should be considered fraudulent and reported to the police.
The statement was signed by Torty Njoku Kalu, Head, Protocol and Public Affairs, PSC, on 1st December 2025.
