In order to prevent the theft of mobile phones, Peru took drastic measures by developing and implementing a system for registering gadgets by IMEI number. This is stated on the official website of the Peruvian Ministry of Internal Affairs.
It also says that theft of smartphones is the most common form of theft in almost all Latin American countries. Residents of Peru, Mexico, and Argentina are strongly discouraged from putting their smartphones on tables in street cafes and wearing them in their back pockets. It is also necessary to show the device as little as possible, especially while being in the subway.
Therefore, in Peru, a special registry of mobile devices has been developed. With it, the smartphone owner will be able to quickly lock his device in case of loss or theft. To do this, you need to find a way to contact your mobile operator and tell him your personal data. After reconciliation, the owner of the stolen smartphone will receive a special number from the operator that blocks the stolen device.
