NBEMS Warns NEET PG 2025 Aspirants Against Fake Notices and Spoofed Communications
The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has issued a crucial warning to all aspirants of the NEET PG 2025 examination regarding a surge in spoofed notices, fake emails, misleading SMS, and deceptive social media content. As the exam season approaches, the Board has observed a growing number of fraudulent activities carried out under the guise of NBEMS to mislead students and extract sensitive personal information.
To ensure that NEET PG candidates do not fall victim to such scams, NBEMS has emphasized the importance of accessing information only through its official websites:
Any updates or official announcements about the NEET PG and other exams conducted by NBEMS will be published solely on these two portals. Candidates are strongly advised not to rely on unofficial sources for exam-related news, schedules, or results.
Official NBEMS WhatsApp Channel for Authentic Updates
In an effort to streamline communication and provide a reliable source for real-time updates, NBEMS has launched an official WhatsApp channel. Candidates can join it via the following link:
👉 NBEMS WhatsApp Channel
The Board has clarified that this is the only authorized social media handle associated with NBEMS. There are no other verified or affiliated social media accounts, groups, or channels on any other platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Telegram, or Twitter (X).
QR Code Verification Introduced in 2020
To further combat misinformation, NBEMS has incorporated QR codes into all official notices issued from July 2020 onward. This initiative allows candidates to instantly verify the authenticity of a notice by simply scanning the QR code. Doing so will redirect users directly to the corresponding official document hosted on the NBEMS website.
This feature is particularly useful in identifying forged or manipulated documents that may be circulated by fraudulent actors seeking to exploit aspirants.
Rising Threat of Fraudulent Communications
NBEMS has also flagged the presence of unscrupulous agents and touts who are attempting to mislead candidates through false promises. These individuals may distribute counterfeit notices, emails, and social media posts in the name of NBEMS, claiming to offer help with:
- Securing high marks in the exam
- Access to leaked or advance copies of question papers
- Inside information or exam assistance
These communications are entirely false and malicious. NBEMS has confirmed that it does not send SMS or emails to any candidate offering exam-related favors or claiming influence over the outcome of the tests. Any such claims are outright fabrications.
Guidance for Candidates: Do Not Engage, Report Immediately
Candidates are urged to exercise extreme caution and refrain from interacting with or responding to any messages—whether by phone, SMS, email, or social media—that offer to manipulate exam outcomes or provide unauthorized materials.
If any candidate is approached with such offers or receives suspicious communication purportedly from NBEMS, they should:
- Immediately verify the authenticity of the message through the official NBEMS websites.
- Report the incident to the NBEMS at the following email:
📧 reportumc@natboard.edu.in
- Notify local police authorities to initiate a formal investigation into the fraudulent activity.
Taking these steps can not only protect individual candidates but also help NBEMS and law enforcement agencies to curb this rising menace.
Final Advisory: Trust Only Official Channels
In summary, NBEMS’s message is clear and firm: Do not trust any unofficial sources, and do not be swayed by promises of help or shortcuts to success. All genuine updates, notices, and information will be published only via the board's official websites and WhatsApp channel.
This cautionary measure is intended to protect the integrity of the NEET PG 2025 examination and the interests of thousands of hard-working medical aspirants across the country.
