CAUTION
The Council wishes to advise members of the public to be on the alert for fraudster who
contact candidates with the promise of upgrading their results for a fee. We wish to assure
all stakeholders that the Council’s results database is well secured, as such all forged results
can be detected by the confirmation/verification system which has been made available to
institutions and organizations.
Institutions and organizations are therefore advised to always authenticate results presented
to them directly from the Council or access the confirmation/verification service online at the
Council’s website. The results print-out may also be confirmed by scanning the encrypted QR
