Knowledge Tit-Bits
A unique code encrypted in each mobile, known as
the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI)
number, is now being used to trace a mobile
anywhere in the country. Even if the SIM card
(network) is changed, it can be traced.
Whenever a phone logs onto a particular network
to make or receive calls, its IMEI number is
emitted and this gets registered. In case of
stolen phones, the service provider can pass on
the information to the police. and they can
trace the user through the SIM card. It is
possible to even track down gangs running
cellphone-stealing rackets.
But I'm On CDMA.... Help !
Sorry. This technology is not available in Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA) mobiles. Handset
can be traced only if used in the same network.
The programming can be changed very easily and
it can be activated for a different service.
