Shocking revelations have exposed a network of scammers exploiting candidates by promising to upgrade their 2024 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination results.

As 965,501 students anxiously await the release of their results, The Standard has uncovered an elaborate fraud scheme operating on Telegram.

These fraudsters have reportedly collected millions of shillings from desperate families by claiming they can change grades for a fee.

The scammers are impersonating Kenya National Examination Council (Knec) examiners and charging between Sh5,000 and Sh50,000.
