August 2025 Archive – What You Missed This Month
Hey there! If you’re wondering what shook up the news feed in August 2025, you’re in the right place. From a serious scam warning in Nigeria to big moves on the soccer field, we’ve pulled the most talked‑about stories together for a quick catch‑up.
Scams and Safety Alerts
The Nigerian Air Force dropped a warning that’s worth a second look. They said fake messages are floating around, claiming the 2025/2026 BMTC and DSSC recruitment has started. The real deal? There’s no exercise running right now, and any genuine call for applicants will be free, merit‑based, and only come from official channels. No fees, no third‑party agents. If you see a message asking for money or personal info, it’s a scam. The force urged everyone to double‑check on the official website or verified social media pages before taking any action.
Why does this matter? A lot of people chase jobs, especially in the military, and scammers know that. By spreading the warning early, the Air Force hopes to stop anyone from losing cash or personal data. So, if you’re on the lookout for a career move, stick to the real sources and ignore the flashy ads that promise fast tracks.
Sports Highlights
Switching gears to soccer, Inter Miami had a hectic weekend. Lionel Messi, the name on everyone’s lips, missed a Leagues Cup quarter‑final because of a minor left adductor strain. Coach Gerardo Martino didn’t want to risk Messi’s recovery, so the team went in without his magic. Luis Suárez, another star, was also out after a red card suspension. That left a lot of questions about the squad’s depth.
Despite the absences, Miami pushed through. In a separate Leagues Cup match against Pumas UNAM, the team won 3‑1. Suárez and Rodrigo De Paul stepped up, each finding the back of the net and helping the club secure a spot in the knockout rounds for the third straight year. The win showed Miami can still produce results even when Messi isn’t on the pitch.
If you’re into Fantasy Premier League, August also brought some price‑drop chatter. Big names like Bukayo Saka, Bruno Fernandes, and Jean‑Philippe Mateta are expected to see their values dip in the 2025/26 season. That creates a window for managers to snap them up at a bargain. Defensive midfielders and a few goalkeepers are also on the radar for cheap upgrades. Keep an eye on underperforming players – they’re often the ones that get cut in price, giving you a chance to strengthen your squad without breaking the bank.
In short, August was a mix of caution and excitement. The Nigerian Air Force’s alert reminds us to stay sharp online, while Inter Miami’s resilience and the FPL market shifts give sports fans plenty to discuss.
