I think to this regard the Computer Misuse and Cybercrime Act offers a solution. It creates the offence under Section 35.

"person who intentionally hides or detains any electronic mail, message, electronic payment, credit and debit card which was found by the person or delivered to the person in error and which ought to be delivered to another person, commits an offence and is liable on conviction a fine not exceeding two hundred thousand shillings or imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years or to both". But you can still argue around it.,

Or what do you think?

Listers,

Something is being disccused online, initiated by Mr Boniface Mwangi:

"There should be a law that anyone who receives mobile money by error and refuses to reverse the transaction should be banned from owning a mobile line. All mobile numbers are supposed to be registered using an ID and that persons ID should be flagged to never transact again." https://twitter.com/bonifacemwangi/status/1275659504647057411?s=19
