The Event Organizer Disappeared with My Deposit — How Do I Get It Back? ================================================================= When you pay a deposit for an event, you expect the organizer to deliver on their promises. But what happens when they disappear with your money? This is a common problem many Kenyans face, and it can be frustrating and costly. Why This Happens ---------------- Event organizers may take advantage of unsuspecting clients, especially when there is no written contract or clear terms of service. In Kenya, the Consumer Protection Act protects consumers from unfair business practices, but it can be challenging to enforce these rights without proper documentation.

1. File a dispute against the event organizer's phone number on Immani.
