The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has issued a warning about a fake message circulating online that falsely claims the NELFUND Student Loan Registration Portal is currently open.
The message directs users to a third-party link — http://gvly.xyz/Nelfund-Student-Loan — which NELFUND has identified as unauthorised and fraudulent.
In a post shared on its X page on Tuesday, NELFUND advised students and the general public to avoid clicking the link or submitting any personal details, stressing that the official loan application portal can only be accessed through the Fund’s verified platforms.
The agency reminded applicants to exercise caution online and to report any suspicious links or communications claiming to be from NELFUND.
“Applicants are encouraged to always verify official announcements via NELFUND’s official website and social media channels,” NELFUND said.
This advisory comes as part of NELFUND’s ongoing efforts to safeguard students and ensure the integrity of the student loan application process.
