Airtel Money Rwanda Fraud: How to Report It and Stop the Money

If you sent money to a scammer through Airtel Money Rwanda, or money left your Airtel Money Rwanda account without your permission, contact Airtel Money Rwanda straight away and ask them to block the receiving account. Wallet money moves fast, so the first minutes matter most.

Do this first

  1. Call Airtel Money Rwanda’s official line below, or use help inside the official Airtel Money Rwanda app. Never use a number from a text, a caller or a search result.
  2. Give them the transaction ID, the amount, the time and the number or account you paid, and ask them to block it.
  3. Change your PIN and password if anyone may know them. Airtel Money Rwanda will never ask for your PIN or a one-time code.
  4. Report it to the police too: see who handles cybercrime in Rwanda, and keep screenshots of every message and payment.
