JAMB Dismisses Viral ‘Highest’ 2026 UTME Result (396 Score) Circulating Online as Fake

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has warned that a purported result slip currently circulating online, claiming that a candidate scored 396 in the 2026 UTME, is fake.

A purported result slip currently being circulated, claiming that a candidate scored 396 in the 2026 UTME, is entirely fake. It is surprising that such a fabrication is being shared by otherwise well-informed Nigerians.

Firstly, the Board has clearly stated that UTME results are view-only. The circulated document appears on a fabricated result template, which on its own is sufficient indication that it is not authentic.

Secondly, the Board’s registration numbers are system-generated and do not follow the pattern “20269” as seen on the fake slip. There are several other inconsistencies that, even at a glance, expose the result as fraudulent.

The public is strongly advised to disregard this fake result and rely only on official channels for accurate information. All results at the moment are view only
