It's unlikely we can know for sure, but logic would tell us that they were probably white to possibly somewhat dark complected. This is because Moab was a decendent of Lot who was Abraham's nephew. Abraham's family were ultimately decendants of Shem, the son of Noah. The African people were unrelated, since they were the sons of Ham the son of Noah.

∙ 8y agoWe may presume that they were of Middle Eastern complexion. Geographically, they lived in the region of modern-day Jordan. Our tradition is that the descendants of Abraham, including the Moabites, were not all similar to each other in appearance, though none of them was very dark-skinned. And unlike the Ishmaelites, the Moabites had no Egyptian blood.
Terah, Abraham's father and the ancestor of the Moabites (through Haran and Lot), came from southern Iraq, while the wider family was from northern Iraq.
