How To Trace A Missing Or Stolen Phone by Anasko(m): 9:48pm On Feb 14, 2018
Stolen Device?
• Check the back of the carton for IMEI and report the incident through this you will definitely get it back*
• Dial *#06#
• If you lose your mobile phone, you can trace it without going to the police.
• Most of us always fear that our phones may be stolen at any time.
• Each phone carries a unique
IMEI no. i.e. International Mobile Equipment Identity No which can be used to track it anywhere in the world.
• This is how it works:
1. Dial *#06# from your mobile.
2. Your mobile phone shows a unique 15 digit.
3. Note down this number at a secure place except in your mobile phone itself as this is the number which will help trace your phone in case of theft.
4. Once stolen, just E-mail this 15 digit IMEI No. to cop@vsnl.net with details as stated below:
Your name:____________________
Address:______________________
Phone model:_________________
Make:_________________________
Last used No.:_________________
E-mail for communication:_____
Missed date:___________________
IMEI No :_______________________
5.Your Mobile will be traced within next 24 hours via a complex system of GPRS and internet, You will find where your hand set is being operated and the new user's No. will be sent to your email.
6. After this, you can inform the Police with the details you now have.

Great one bro!

I would also add up to check https://www.google.com/android/find if you have an Android to check the last known position the phone had when it was connected to the Internet.

Also, you can use a free service like freecal.com to call your phone (this in case you can't reach one of your friends to call you).

There is a guide on how to find a lost phone here: https://www.unlockunit.com/blog/how-to-find-a-lost-phone-instantly/
