GSM
•GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) is a digital mobile telephony system
that is widely used in world.
•TDMA(time division multiplexing )system is used in this service.
• It operates at either the 900 MHz or 1800 MHz frequency band.
•It also provides GPRS, HSCSD, EDGE, UMTS services.
SIM

4.Mobilledit
also many more software are available for GSM cloning …

Symptoms of phone cloning
Unfortunately, there is no way the subscriber can detect cloning. Events like call dropping or
anomalies in monthly bills can act as tickers. But some points mentioned below can help.
•Frequent wrong number phone calls to your phone, or hang-ups.
•Difficulty in placing outgoing calls.
•Difficulty in retrieving voice mail messages.
•Incoming calls constantly receiving busy signals or wrong numbers.
•Unusual calls appearing on phone bills.

Methods to Detect Phone cloning

15.
Methods to Detect Phone cloning
The network sees the same phone in several places at the same time. Reaction include
shutting them all off so that the real customer will contact the operator because he lost
the service he is paying for.
The mobile phone seems to be moving at impossible, or most unlikely speeds.
It can be done by the tracking the locations of call simultaneously.
For example, if a call is first made at some place , and after five minutes, another call is
made at another place and if travel between two places in that time is impossible.
Duplicate Detection
Velocity Trap

16.
Methods to Detect Phone cloning
By counting the monthly tariff of the calls.
To gave a SIM PIN lock security
To make a call by dialing a number followed by dialing SIM PIN Code
If a call is still going after that then the SIM must be cloned
Call Counting
PIN Codes

17.
Impact of Phone cloning
Although the phone cloning is the huge problem in united state and europium countries but
in India which is 2nd
largest country in using mobile telephony, is in primary stage for mobile
cloning crime. Very few Indians are aware about this and have knowledge about that.
The Phone cloning has good impact and also have bad impact.
•The phone cloning has done for security reason and military security purpose
•Detectives also used this kind of technology
•And for SIM losing the nowadays the company also provides a duplicate SIM to subscriber
without loosing his number
GOOD IMPACT

18.
Impact of Phone cloning
•Many criminals use cloned cellular telephones for illegal activities, because their calls are
billed to them, and are therefore much more difficult to trace.
•The bigger chance to subscribers security loss, banking details loss.
•It is quite easy to monitory a person by that way
•Each year, the mobile phone industry loses millions of dollars in revenue because of the
criminal action of person who are able to reconfigure mobile phones so that their calls are
billed to other phones owned by innocent third persons.
BAD IMPACT

19.
Prevent Cloning
1. Traffic analysis though artificial intelligence software
2. User verification using Personal Identification Number(PIN) codes is one method for
customer protection against cellular phone fraud
3. Backlisting the stolen phone that will helping it to sorting the IMEI number
4. Do not receive the calls from suspicious number nowadays the fraud calls can track the
unique id of phone by receiving it
5. Do not give phones IMEI number and SIM cards specific numbers to any persons

20.
• It may be a great technology for detectives
• The SIM owner can clone the SIM for multipurpose using by informing the company.(i.e
for working place and one for home)
• It is a valuable technology for militaries
• the technology helps the company and also the subscriber they had less chance to
loose their number.
Future Aspects

21.
Conclusion
• Mobile Cloning is in initial stage in India
• preventive steps should be taken by the network provider and Also by the Government by
the enactment of legislation to prosecute crimes related to cellular phones.
• However It is essential that intended mobile crime legislation be comprehensive enough to
incorporate cellular phone fraud, in particular “cloning fraud” as a specific crime.
• Existing cellular system have a number of potential weakness that were considered.
• It is crucial that business and staff take mobile phone security seriously.
• However we have to throw out the negative part of this technology and try to use it
worthily, as science and technology is not for a destruction rather it is for a blessing for
human beings.
