Also, are those numbers verified? 350m in 4 days translates to 87m per day.
if each person was paying 350 bob, it would mean close to 250k transactions
a day. What medium did they use to advertise to reach the 250k users daily
for 4 days (average)

I could be wrong but i am doubting these numbers and if indeed the numbers
are true, i  would like to know how they were achieved.
