Fake Educational Agents In Nigeria marked as Spam
Recently came across admissions adverts on Nairaland
today, and it talked about securing admissions for prospective undergraduates
from Nigeria to study in Ukraine. Based on the citing on the acclaimed admissions
website at www.studyukr.com they claim to
be an educational consultant firm mediating on behalf of Nigerians into
Ukraine. Below in this article am going to give you all detailed explanations to
doubt the services of this Education Agent Website (Fraudsters that wants to
Scam vulnerable citizens).
- · Page quality: I discovered that the website they used to operate is questionable judging from the web appearance. It’s not new to know that for an official site that claims to be an educational agent body to have a professionally built site for the purpose of creation. The website pages are inaccurate and are poorly detailed as regards to empty web pages or less or irrelevant articled information. You can see an example of what I mean by professionally built site for education and well detailed in information’s here www.fsb.gov.ng , you might say that the FSB website is government owned, OK! No problems check out this other organization www.swbafrica.com/ .
- · No R.C. Number: all legitimate organizations should have a verifiable business registration number from the www.services.cac.gov.ng/ or from the country’s specific business directory office, shown in their website.
- · No Office Address Cited: another key factor to know legal business operations is the pointing of their business of and locations to customers in their webpage for customer inquiry and satisfaction.
- · No Contact page/About us page: It’s embarrassing that a company cannot address their prospective clients, tutoring them on the services they render and how to contact them for assistance. Rather they managed to add up a foreign number which apparently looks like an embedded toll forwarding line.
- · Abusive Processing Sum: The processing fee is copious and extorting. In Nigeria Agents requires applicants pay the application fee of N5000 –N15000 (five thousand naira to fifteen thousand naira) or its equivalence in dollar especially for those that wants to apply to Ghanaian institutions. They sum of $500 (Five hundred dollars) for processing fee and addition $100 (Hundred dollars) for Logistics or processing fee everything totaling $600 (Six Hundred Dollars). That’s really unofficial.
Content Summary
No legal corporation would have unauthenticated pictures
without link proof to back it out. They just used random internet pictures for
slideshows. Because www.nairaland.com is
an online worthy certified and good traffic source they took advantage of it
and paid for an ad slot space.
I have been
in the online community for years and have done reviews for websites and educational
agencies and best believe I know it when something gets fishy. The reason I took
my time to detail this article to you is for you to take your time to use those
few criteria listed above to judge educational agencies online. They would want
to make use of the educational chaos in Nigeria to extort and defraud newbies. If
you want to study abroad either as a Scholar
on free tuition program or you are
self-reliant there are guided and genuine ways to source for schools
abroad. You can feel free to scout for schools
that offer 100% scholarship with no application fee to pay. At the time of my
research I found out that there are indeed countries that need international
students to study for free in their home country with fewer requirements i.e. feeding
money and good sum filled in your travellers’ cheque for security purposes.
You can see an exception to this particular country that would pay your return flight
ticket after study. And empower you to return to your home country. You can see
their Requirements,Eligibility and Motives here.
Help to research if www.studyukr.com is a scam!
