Security Service Applicants Warned Against Fake Medical Screening Messages.
The Ministry of the Interior, Ghana, has warned applicants to disregard fraudulent SMS messages circulating about the ongoing recruitment medical screening process.
In a statement, the Ministry, together with recruiting agencies, clarified that no SMS notifications for medical screening have yet been sent to applicants.
Official messages are expected to be dispatched between March 29 and March 31, 2026, and Medical Screening is scheduled to commence on Tuesday, 7th April 2026, at designated centers across all regions.
Additionally, all qualified applicants for medical screening are to note the change in their status from “Qualified” to “MEDICAL SCREENING” on their applicant portal once SMSS are sent. All applicants are therefore entreated to double-check all SMS’s received in relation to the medical screening process and ensure they see the change in status before proceeding to make payment via the secure web checkout system on their portal.
Applicants have been urged to remain vigilant and avoid making payments to individuals or unverified sources claiming to facilitate the process.
According to the statement, all legitimate SMS notifications will come from the authorised sender ID “CSERP.”
Payments are to be completed strictly through the secure web checkout system on the portal.
The Ministry stressed that no applicant is required to send money to any mobile money number, warning that such requests are fraudulent.
