Beware Of Scammers, "Unilorin" Warns Incoming Students!

The appearance of the web brought a ton of focal points, boss among which is the opening up of a tremendous vista of business good fortunes. However a few corrupt components in the general public have been working tricky to turn these profits against clueless parts of the general population. A few people have lost billions of naira to fraudsters who utilize the web to trick them. Studies have demonstrated that the gathering of individuals that is most powerless to web extortion is the frantic or the eager. While the frantic would go to any length to get what they need, incorporating separating with the little assets available to them sometime or another, the insatiable ones are always fixated on the rapacious inclination until they are seized, the whole time, of immense fiscal and/or venture holdings.

An awful situation is as of now playing out whereby a few "edgy" induction seekers to the University of Ilorin have been fleeced of their well deserved cash. Reports have shown that a few hopefuls have been made to part with to the extent that N25, 000 every apparently to be qualified to tune in the post-UTME screening test of the University of Ilorin! Such urgent however clueless induction seekers most likely discovered a cloned site, which con artists display as that of the University. On this apparition site, the seekers were told that the University had discharged the cut-off imprint for the 2014/2015 induction practice and encouraged to begin "transforming" their applications.

One of these hapless exploited people, who called me on telephone after she had been hoodwinked, said that a companion of hers, who realizes that she had picked the University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) in the last Universities Matriculation Examination, let her know to visit a site, which she guaranteed was that of the better by a wide margin University. Alice (not true name) said that on logging onto the site, www.unilorin.edu.com, she got data that the University's 2014/2015 induction activity was for sure effectively underway and that to be qualified to sit for the post-UTME test, she need to pay a non-refundable enlistment expense of N25, 000! Alice let me know that she quickly paid the entirety into an assigned individual ledger with her verve card and that from that point forward, very nearly three weeks now, she has not heard anything from the 'College'.

I don't know how Alice got my phone number (I didn't try to ask her really), however the franticness in her voice moved me to address her and her kindred desperadoes to be more watchful next time not to fall casualties of conmen. In the first examination, the University of Ilorin has not discharged its cut-off imprint during the current year's concession exercise. At whatever point the time it now, time to discharge it, this will be broadly plugged in the print and electronic media everywhere throughout the nation. Regardless, since the Joint Admission and Matriculations Board (JAMB) is yet to discharge the national cut-off imprint, Unilorin would never "break convention" by singularly discharging its "own particular cut-off imprint". Also, the main site of the University of Ilorin is www.unilorin.edu.ng and not the apparition one cited previously. Also to enter the site, it is not prudent for anyone to hunt down it on Google. The main method for entrance is by writing www.unilorin.edu.ng in the correspondence box on the program.

Thirdly, the University of Ilorin does not charge "transforming expense" for confirmation. The main preadmission charge is exceptionally pitiful and it is for enrollment for the post-UTME test. It was simply N2, 000 last year. What's more regardless, it won't be paid into a singular's close to home ledger like what our companion, Alice, was made to do.

It is no more news that the University of Ilorin is the most looked for after college in the nation. In the current JAMB work out, more than 109,000 applicants were said to have picked the University. There is, on the other hand, a tangle here, as this "hot cake disorder" is putting a considerable measure of weight on the University while in the meantime it has made, in the competitors, a certain urgency, the harmfulness of which is preferred envisioned over accomplished. In fact, the scramble by sundry affirmation seekers to enter the University of Ilorin is justifiable. What with a peaceful the earth; a continuous scholastic timetable; a faction free grounds; decently prepared and conferred speakers, who have the enthusiasm of the understudies on a basic level. There is in fact no disclaiming the way that Unilorin is the University to be!

It is evident that it is this appeal and franticness by induction seekers to enter the University of Ilorin that tricksters have persistently abused. Notwithstanding, prospective hopefuls and their guardians and watchmen ought not permit this appeal to cloud their feeling of thinking to the degree of falling affordably for fraudsters!

The University Admission Officer, Mr. Monsur Alfa-Nla sounded a comparable cautioning last Thursday (June 26, 2014) when he exhorted concession seekers to look for data through the University's sanction media of data.

Mr. Alfa-Nla, who gave the guidance throughout a live question program on Unilorin 89.3 FM, said that the University can't alter a cut-off imprint before JAMB discharges the national cut-off imprints for open colleges, polytechnics, schools of training and monotechnics. He said it is after this is carried out that individual tertiary organizations could then proceed to alter their separate cut-off imprints and publish the dates for their particular post-UTME tests.

A fasten in time spares thousands! Hopefuls, be vigilant!
