3 AM Kenyan time massive looting of Safaricom data bundles went down just hours after the giant telecommunication company headed by Michael Joseph launched NO EXPIRY data bundles.

After the discovery among some Kenyans the news spread so fast, as expected, with a good number of Kenyans making away with millions of data bundles with no expiry date.
One would dial *544# and choose option 1 with was Data Bundle (NO EXPIRY) and enter amount 100000000 pay with Airtime and automatically get the illegal bundles to your phone.
It also had an option where one can buy for another number.
Barely an hour later, Safaricom realised the heist and removed the new non-expiry bundles options and set back the old one.
Kenyans took to Twitter to celebrate the heist

So all of you snitches in twitter cannot just let #safaricom suffer without letting out to them here? This company has stolen lots of data from me. It deserves it's share of the heist
