THE Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) on Friday cautioned citizens about providing personal information to persons purporting to be representatives of the Commission.
In a statement to the media, GECOM said caution must be exercised when answering telephone calls from persons claiming to be from the entity.

“Several persons have contacted the Commission to query the nature of the exercise after receiving anonymous telephone calls requesting personal information. Please be advised that the Commission is not engaged in any such exercise,” declared GECOM.

As such, GECOM is urging citizens to be “extremely cautious” and not to provide any information to the callers who are pretending to be from the Commission as their motive is unknown and can be potentially harmful.
