The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Senator George Akume, has claimed that his voice has been cloned by criminal syndicates.
Akume alleges that these criminals are using the cloned
voice to attempt to defraud high-profile individuals by offering them promises
of federal government appointments.
“From information available to the office, the fraudsters
cloned the voice of the SGF, using it to solicit money in return for federal
appointments,” a statement signed by the SGF’s Special Adviser, Media and
Publicity, Yomi Odunuga, read.
Akume also claimed that the scammers have “cloned the phone
numbers of high profile individuals to solicit funds from unsuspecting members
of the public.”
He warned members of the public to be wary of such schemes,
in which individuals are asked to pay money to facilitate fake appointments.
“The warning becomes necessary as the Office of the
Secretary to the Government of the Federation has been inundated with enquiries
relating to the activities of these fraudulent individuals and groups,” he
added.
