How to protect yourself from payment scams

  • No scheme charges a fee. Nobody can add you to a beneficiary list or speed up a payment for money.
  • Never share your PIN, OTP or BVN with anyone who calls, texts or messages you about a payment.
  • Ignore payment dates on social media unless the ministry or agency has announced them. Each tracker above shows only confirmed dates.
  • There is no new N-Power registration. Any “N-Power 2026 registration” link is fake.
