The management of Vanguard Newspapers wishes to inform the public that the WhatsApp account of its Publisher, Mr. Sam Amuka, has been hacked. Fraudulent messages are being sent from the compromised line requesting urgent financial assistance, including a demand for the transfer of N850,000 to the following account: Name: TERKIMBI EMMANUEL; Account Number: 6328927473; Bank: Fidelity Bank. The message claims there is a network issue and promises a refund the next morning. This request is false and did not originate from Mr. Amuka. The public is strongly advised to disregard the message and refrain from sending any money. Efforts are underway to secure the line. Management Vanguard Newspapers
