Crime Prevention : Safety Tips

Prevention hints on cellular robberies

• Conceal your cell phone when you are in a public place
   
• Do not leave cell phones in the open in cars.
   
• Never leave your cell phone in your office unattended.
   
• Know your EMIC and keep it in a safe place.
   
• Put your phone on silence when you are in a public place and only answer it when it is safe to do so.
   
• If your cell phone is lost or stolen, report it the Mobile Cellular Operator(MCO) who will give you a blacklisting reference number.
   
• After that you must report the phone to a police official at a police station where you will also be expected to produce the reference number that you got from the MCO.
   
• Once a cell phone is blacklisted, a person who gets hold of it will not be able to use it.
