Abstract

Personal identification numbers, PINs, are used with cellular telephones to reduce fraudulent cellular usage of stolen and cloned cell phones. Wireless transmission of PINs can result in interception thereof by the same means that are used to intercept cell phone account numbers and serial numbers to produce cloned cell phones. Wireless transmission of PINs is reduced by only requiring the use of a PIN when a telephone number being called by a cell phone or subscriber does not match a list of numbers previously called by that particular cell phone or subscriber. The invention is useful wherever PINs are used to reduce cell phone fraud.
