Fight crime – identify your

cellphone

What to do before and after your phone is stolen:

l Turn on your phone and type *#06# – you will see your 15-digit IMEI number. Record it.

l If your cellphone is stolen, phone your service provider to cancel the SIM card so the thief cannot dial out. Get a case number from the police.

l Phone or fax your service provider with the cellphone number, case number and IMEI number.

l If you cannot get through to your service provider, contact the networks directly: Vodacom at 0800 111-234; MTN at 0800 111-007.
