Good morning all

Thank you Mr.Walubengo for the good moderation so far much appreciated

My question is what is the number of annual incidences/cases reported
involving mpesa fraud?And are they ever resolved successfully?

Secondly If I am carjacked in a matatu as often happens to passengers here,
can Safaricom introduce a red flag system where I can discreetly notify
relevant authorities that I am withdrawing from my mpesa account under
duress?

That is to say a silent alarm to raise awareness that there is a crime
taking place, and maybe even remotely use my phone GPS location service so
that I can be tracked and the culprits apprehended in the act?

Blocking the mpesa account at such a sensitive time may not be too wise as
the thieves may end a victim's life accusing him/her of non-cooperation

Thank you kindly
