HOW TO PROTECT YOUR MOBILE PHONE
You’ve got a new mobile phone. It’s
got a touch screen, a big display and a great digital camera. You can do
amazing things with it. But can you protect it from mobile phone thieves?
Here are some tips to help you.
Tip 1: Most
thieves steal phones so they can make expensive phone calls on them –
and you have to pay for these calls. If you lock your phone with a security
code, many thieves won’t want to steal it.
Tip 2: Use
an ultraviolet pen to write your address and home phone number on your phone.
You should write them on the phone and on the battery. You can’t see
ultraviolet writing under a normal light, so a phone thief won’t know it’s
there. But it will help you identify the phone. If someone wants to return
the phone to you, it will help him or her, too.
Tip 3: Press
*#06# on your keypad and a special code will appear on your phone’s display.
If someone steals your mobile, give the code to the phone company. The
company can use the code to block the phone permanently. Then the thief can’t
use it with your SIM card or with any other SIM card.
Tip 4: Download
a program like GadgetTrak. This program can find your phone. It can even take
a photo of the thief!
