My
name is Cynthia Joseph, am 17 years old and I would like to share my
JAMB story with you guys, so other people will not be deceived as i was
deceived.
I wrote JAMB last year while I was still in ss3 and I scored 204. I was just testing my ability so I did not take the examination serious. My dad expected even more from me this year.
This
year jamb exam was to hold on April but due to the fact that I was at
home after my WAEC, I have started reading and preparing for JAMB since
December 2012. My course is economics and I was sitting for Maths,
English, Commerce and Economics.
I
scored 183 in my second try. I checked my result in 3 cyber-cafe
because it was so hard for me to believe it was my result, I cried and
cried but the crying did not change anything.
My
parents were not disappointed they were just surprised that I got that
score but they said its God’s doing that I should wait for next year..
That was the saddest sentence I have ever heard in my life.
When
my neighbor check his own he scored 215, he was so shocked he thought
jamb made a mistake but what made him believe it was his result was
because he used CHOKES.
Two weeks after the examination I came across a website www.upgradejamb.blogspot.com/ When i saw the website I was shocked and I showed it to my elder brother who was a graduate he discouraged me to forget about the site, that it is against the law, he went further saying if i get caught i will spend some years in jail, but i laughed it off.
I read all what was written on the website and it was so perfect that I believed every word that was written there. So i called the phone number and a guy picked it up, I told him that I saw his number on a jamb site and that i will like to upgrade my jamb score from 182 to 205. He said that’s not a problem and he would help me do it in 5 hours after payment. He requested for my jamb details which I sent and he told me that when I pay the money I should call him..

I
was kinda happy and I decided not to tell my parents, I will use the
upgraded result as a surprise to them, I brought out all my savings it
was 3,500 naira i could put together. I lied to my elder bother that I
want to learn how to type and the typist requested for 1,500 naira. He
gave it to me immediately and said after i learn it i will be more
useful to him and I will have something doing.
The next day i headed to the bank and i payed the sum of 5,000 naira into his Account;

I
called him and he said he got an alert that after 5hours I should go
and re-print my result. Unfortunately when I went to the cyber cafe i
was told my jamb card has been used many times that I need to get a new
jamb card, I was sad because I don’t know where to get the money.
Actually the man selling jamb stuffs is my church member so I went to
get the card on credit with the belief that when my parent see the
result they will be very happy and they would pay for the card.
But
to my greatest surprise I checked my result and nothing changed I
waited for the next day checked again and I still saw my same score. I
called him and he did not pick up. I sent him messages, he replied
saying its a database complication that I should wait for an hour and
check back. I waited for two hours and checked but I still saw the jamb
score. I called him again but his phone was not reachable. Till now his
phone has not been reachable. It was that moment I realized I have been
scammed. I took the courage and I told my parents what happened. I
showed the the website and they said its not my fault that if they were
the one they would fall for it. So they paid for the jamb card and
enrolled me into a computer school and I apologized to my elder brother
for lying to him.
Its not like I want a refund or something. I just want people to know that this upgrading stuff is not real and I wish someone can catch the owner of that site and lock him up because I believe I am not his only victim and I will not be his last.
Thanks for reading and you all can ask me any questions you like but no insults please.
