Step 1
First of all, you need to call your telecom operator, tell about what happened and ask to block your SIM card. After that, calls from your phone will become impossible. Order your operator to identify all recent calls from your phone. A printout of calls can help you find an intruder.
Step 2
Each operator has a special number to call in such cases. Here are the numbers of the most popular operators in Russia:
Megaphone - 0500;
MTS - 0890;
Beeline - 0611;
You can also call from a landline phone, find out the number of the customer support center in your region on the official website of the company.
Step 3
The next step is to find the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity). It is usually found on the box the phone was sold in. Having IMEI on hand, go to the nearest police station, write a statement about the loss or loss. Knowing the IMEI of your phone, the cellular operator can easily locate it as soon as a new SIM card is inserted into it and a call is made. Cellular operators cooperate only with the internal affairs bodies, so try to get your application accepted, then there is a hope that the phone will be found and returned to the owner.
