Things to do after mobile theft
Once you notice that your cell phone has been stolen you must under take the following steps so as to avoid any incidents such as paying bills or been answerable to calls you never made.
Report to the nearest police post that you have been stolen and at what time the event may has happened. Providing such information alerts the authority excluding you from any illegal matters that may arise as a result of any call that may be made made from your stolen cell phone.
Information such as the serial number make and model of your phone will be required to make a complete statement.
Second, inform your network service provider. The network provider will block the SIM card and phone restricting any transaction or calls that may be made. in case of anyone calling the network provider customer service for a such phone unlock service or SIM card unlock, then they should be suspicious and make necessary inquiries unblocking, inquiries made so as such to counter check whether the SIM card details resemble those of the stolen phone. Such procedures can help in identifying the person who may be using your phone.
The other body you need to alert is the mobile tracking company. If a chip was fixed on the phone, the tracking system would be activated and in the next five minutes or less, the location of the thief would be established. By the help of the authority such as the Kenya police or G4S security company, you could have the crooked arrested and the phone recovered. Any private security firm would charge a fee for any service they would provide in recovering your stolen phone.
