In April i lost 123k to these fraudsters.It is very simple to make preventive measures make availability of mpesa after sim swap to be 24-48 hours.Then make activation process be similar to a new line where the person has to go personally with ID.But if someone has access immediately then many more are going to lose money.Maybe we need a class action against  safaricom for being vicariously liable.I should give omtata a shout ....by the way

Greetings Team,

With the story doing rounds on social media, has Safaricom issued a statement on the same? Anyone from Safaricom on the list care to comment? 

Warm regards, 

Michael Bullut.
