Call customer care immediately or visit a Safaricom shop.. Your SIM may have been swapped (not hacked).

Ifs a smart phone especially the android; then likely cause is that its a malware. Try the latest antivirus or alternatively flash your phone.

If your SIM card is swapped, then it cannot receive calls, make calls, Send or receive SmS or browse or carry out any network activity. The person whom your SIM card was swapped to assumes ownership of the line, and will receive all calls that were directed to your line. The only people who can assist you are Safaricom. Kindly seek help from them and if need be, talk to the cops, but first seek ownership of your SIM card. Be ignorant and ask a few questions - Peter Drucker

It is this operation that allows the operator to switch your number to a new SIM card when you report the loss/theft of your phone. You're thus able to retain your number, otherwise you'd have to take a new phone number every time you lost your phone. Unfortunately, sometimes it is abused by dishonest people.

Unfortunately, sometimes it is abused by dishonest people. @mozenrat that means when this is verified, it will turn out that someone actually used his ID (fake or genuine) at one of the Safaricom shop to do the swap. I've heard people clone your ID, and put their picture instead of yours. How can we make sure your true picture is stored by the operators? And also in other institutions that require your ID to transact.

Dangerous times, banking apps should be for low balance accounts? Quote:Enquiries at a phone shop in the airport showed his line had been replaced on July 3, a day after he shared his information with the bank. He had travelled to Israel on June 26, according to immigration stamps on his passport.
“We also learnt that Sh40,000 had been withdrawn from my account. I do not know how my mobile money PIN was regenerated and issued to strangers. I am at a loss how they identified themselves,” the former banker said.
Mr Wanjiku was to discover the extent of the theft with time as, in all, Sh1.9 million was withdrawn from his mobile money and two bank accounts, one of which was not linked to his mobile phone between July 3 and 4.
Besides the mobile wallet withdrawal, Sh339,000 was withdrawn from his bank account and Sh1.5 million, which was transferred to other banks, from a joint account. He later learnt that his PIN for the accounts had also been replaced and regenerated. The Nation has seen certified bank statements confirming the transactions. https://www.nation.co.ke...668722-f0dac0/index.html

I have seen some similar things doing rounds on WhatsApp groups. Have they released any official communication? For investors as a whole, returns decrease as motion increases ~ WB
