“The Zambia Information and Communications Technology Authority (ZICTA) claims to have disconnected over two million SIM cards across the country and said these were illegally registered. ZICTA consumer protection and compliance manager Edgar Mlauzi said the organisation is “working tirelessly” to combat digital fraud. He said the deactivated SIM cards belong to subscribers who had more than ten SIM cards under one name, and which the Authority believes are used to commit fraud.”
