These scammers, operating through platforms like WhatsApp and other social media channels, have been reaching out to students and other individuals, claiming to be able to manipulate academic records for a fee. However, FUTA has emphasized that such claims are entirely fraudulent and part of a deceitful scheme aimed at extorting money through unethical means.
FUTA asserts that its Examination and Records System is robust and impervious to both internal and external manipulation. The university administration underscores that any purported offers or promises made by these scammers are entirely false and should be treated with utmost skepticism.
In light of these deceptive practices, FUTA issues a clear disclaimer, absolving itself of any liability arising from transactions conducted with these fraudulent individuals. The university emphasizes that individuals engaging in any form of business with these scammers do so at their own risk and potential loss.
This warning serves as a precautionary measure to safeguard the integrity of FUTA's academic processes and protect its students and stakeholders from falling victim to fraudulent activities. FUTA urges its community members to remain vigilant and report any suspicious communications or interactions to the appropriate authorities for swift action.
By raising awareness of these scams and reaffirming its commitment to maintaining a secure academic environment, FUTA aims to ensure the continued trust and confidence of its stakeholders in the integrity of its Examination and Records System.
