The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has issued a warning to the public regarding fraudulent online recruitment and enlistment exercises.

In a press release, the GAF stated that they have observed a fake press release circulating on social media, instructing interested applicants to send their summary reports and contact details to a fraudulent email address: ghforces37@gmail.com.

Furthermore, the false document references a supposed press release from the Finance Ministry to the GAF, claiming that recruitment of new officers in all sectors has been postponed due to financial constraints faced by the government.

The GAF strongly advises individuals to be cautious and refrain from engaging with such fraudulent activities.

They emphasize that the official channels for GAF recruitment will be duly announced through the appropriate channels and not through unofficial means.

The GAF encourages the public to verify any information regarding recruitment exercises directly from their official sources to ensure accuracy and legitimacy.

By raising awareness of this issue, the GAF aims to protect aspiring applicants from falling victim to scams and maintain the integrity of their recruitment process.

“Additionally, the fake document makes reference to a purported press release by the Finance Ministry to GAF about holding on recruitment of new officers across all sectors due to financial constraints on the part ofgovernment,” the statement reads.
