With the teacher’s resumption date scheduled for January 20th, 2025, Teaching Service Commission is reiterating its commitment to supporting teachers during this crucial period. TSC Chairman Samson Wangihomie once again emphasized the importance of vigilance among educators, especially those who have recently graduated, to avoid falling victim to fraudulent schemes aimed at deceiving them for financial gain. “These dishonest individuals are preying on unsuspecting teachers, contacting them via WhatsApp and utilizing deceitful tactics such as requesting registration fees and falsified pay statements in exchange for services. “ “TSC does not operate any formal accounts or payment platforms for payroll services; all assistance provided by TSC is entirely free of charge.” “Therefore, teachers are strongly advised not to engage with any WhatsApp numbers claiming to represent TSC or make any payments to bank accounts that may be associated with fraudulent activities.” It is crucial to remain vigilant and protect oneself from falling victim to scams that could harm both financially and professionally. By staying informed and heeding these warnings, teachers can safeguard themselves and their colleagues from potential exploitation by scammers seeking to take advantage of their trust and vulnerability.
