Beware of these conmen

There’s a group of conmen probably based in Kenya or Tanzania (according to the phone code) calling themselves officials of East African Breweries Ltd.

There’s a group of conmen probably based in Kenya or Tanzania (according to the phone code) calling themselves officials of East African Breweries Ltd.

They send text messages to different phones informing people that they have won a lot of money. Normally the amount they quote is sh500,000 (Kenya currency).

They then go on to advise the receiver of the message to call back for ‘more information’ on number 254728063940 but the massage received is from a different number— +255763017025.

These people are fraudsters and the police should help us to trace and arrest them. The public should also be alert or they will be conned.
