What you need
- A working Safaricom line
- The suspect number (number trying to defraud you)
The procedure:
- Go to compose New SMS on your phone
- Write a message quoting the fraudulent number and ask Safaricom to investigate
- Send the message to 333
Safaricom will investigate the fraud
Important Tips
- When you receive a message that has allegedly come from M-Pesa , please verify that it’s from M-Pesa rather than from a personal number
- When you receive a call from someone claiming to have sent you Money on M-Pesa, check your balance before sending him the money back. You could as well dial *234# to get a FREE mini-statement
- Make your M-pesa PIN a bit complex , hard for fraudsters to guess it
- Never dial codes perform commands on your phone that you did not request for assistance from Safaricom Customer Care.

Michael Gacheru Kieme using phone numbers 0788427907,0782088836 and 0768286268 scammed me a total of kshs 42,441..claiming that he is a farmer who sells maize and that he would supply me maize for sale. He then refused to pick my calls. Guys be cautious about this guy. I have his pictures and I can assist Safaricom with them to help in creating awareness and probably help me get my money back.

I need help on fraud issues done through Paybill to an account number kindly
Guys please be aware of this number 020 2012000. They called me in the disguise of Safaricom customer care about my number having double registration or something of the sort. That number got me confused and I thought it was a legit call from Safaricom. So they asked for my details until it got to the point that asked for my last two digits of my pin. Then it came to me. You are not supposed to share your pin even to Safaricom themselves. I knew I was in trouble so I went to google the number and see if it would match any Safaricom hotline. Heeee!!! no such thing.
But it was too late they had enough. The guy on the line then told me to switch off my phone for 20 min so that they could repair the damage. I declined and that’s when he started becoming aggressive which pissed me off. How do call me and raise your voice at me Schaumburg?
Luckily I did not have any cash in my line… Also, I have a bad credit score (CRB Enlisted) so they won’t get any loan from anywhere. trust me I tried. The Only thing that gets me worried is that my identity may be used to scam other people.
Safaricom advised that I replace my line and report the issue to the police. Like we all don’t know how that ends. Guys, in short, don’t provide personal info to anyone claiming to be from Safaricom. If Safaricom wanted this info, they already have it in their system.
020 2004010 if you are called by this number, be careful. They called me saying my number is registered twice and I should give them registration details. I didn’t give them audience. I hurriedly hunged up suspecting it was a potential sim swap case.

I should have checked the call did not at least come from 0722000000. Don’t be like me be ware. The fraudster is even bald enough in our beautiful Kenya to withdraw the money from an ATM point.

Fraudsters purporting to be Safaricom customer care agents confirming SIM registration.
They clean out your mobile money.
on 11TH April 2018 my mum was called by 0720151625 claiming to work for safaricom and wanting her details. She refused . they kept calling her and nagging her she decided to switch off her phone. after 30 minutes she switched on her phone but her phone had been blocked. so she called me using my dads number and i immediately called safaricom explained to them the situation and requested them to block my mothers line. Unfortunately a sim swap had taken place and the money she had in Mpesa 44,000ksh had been used to buy bundles to another line …My question is how did they manage to deactivate my mums line and conduct the sim swap yet she did not disclose any information at all to them
Hi Miriam,
what a sad experience . My though is they might have had the details the persistent calling was to prompt your mother to switch off the phone so they could orchestrate the swap . Switching off the phone to stop the nagging is not advisable.
I have been losing my money and never knew how the loss comes-by, who can tell me how this happens?
