| Subject: IMEI Block Check - Check if your carded mobile is.. Fri Apr 11, 2008 4:53 pm | |
| Hey,
Every mobile phone you use or see has a IMEI number (International Mobile Equipment Identity number). When a phone is reported stolen, the IMEI number is blocked (and in certain situations, can be tracked). To find out if the IMEI number of a mobile handset is reported stolen, checkout
http://www.amta.org.au/default.asp?Page=405
I know it's a .com.au website, but IMEI stands for 'International mobile equipment identity' meaning if it's reported stolen in one country, amta.org.au should list it aswell. _________________

| I wasn goin an say it... but since death say it yeah there's no local interest in this steups. It probably means more business for them that we'd have to buy more phones... but i'm more concerned about the fact that this has the potential to assist in solving crimes but nobody cares... _________________ lonliness is a killer... imaginary friends are lifesavers... http://www.anxietyhelp.org/information/leibowitz.html I got 124...

| Well not exactly,the only thing I know they do is register your number to another sim so you don't have get another number,surprisingly this was done free of charge when you obtain a police report,don't know if it still like that presently though.But since a cell phone emits it location to the network when it is on,i'm sure there is a way to track it down and get it back,but like raucous said,it just means more money for them since you have to buy a new phone so they don't care about your interest. _________________ ================ ================= >Never let the future disturb you.
