A shocking scam unfolded in the Rift Valley Region where a man is reported to have swindled 32 unemployed teachers a staggering 9 million shillings and provided them with fake TSC employment forms.

Hundreds of jobless teachers in Baringo, Elgeyo Marakwet, and Uasin Gishu are said to have lost over Ksh3 million in a fake Teachers Service Commission (TSC) recruitment scam.

One teacher from Kabarnet lost Ksh100,000 after her family sold their land, while an Eldoret-based detective lost Ksh120,000 in a desperate attempt to help his daughter get employed.

The scammers, posing as TSC insiders, issued fake posting letters that were later discovered to be forgeries.

Authorities are investigating the matter, with key suspects having switched off their phones to evade arrest.
