Not all citizens are aware of how to find out on whom a SIM card is registered. Such information is rarely needed by people. However, there are times when incoming calls come from unknown numbers, after which it is not always possible to determine who tried to contact you. This article provides information on how to determine the owner of a SIM card by phone number.

SIM card - connection with the world

Every time you get a new SIM card in the salons cellular communication the buyer is required to present an identity card. However, recently an anonymous SIM card has become in great demand. At the same time, the citizen does not need to show any documents, the phone number in this situation is already registered to a third party.

However, such actions are not legal, since the Federal Law of July 7, 2003 No. 126-FZ says that within 10 days after issuing a SIM card, the seller must enter information about the buyer into the general database of mobile numbers. However, the Code of Administrative Offenses provides for different ones only for sellers.

The amount of administrative fines ranges from 5,000 rubles for individuals and up to 200,000 rubles for various enterprises. Therefore, no penalty is provided for the purchase of a SIM card without presenting an identity card.

Anonymous SIM cards are in great demand among business travelers and migrants who are not registered in any region. Regardless of the fact that almost every mobile phone owner buys their SIM cards officially, using the method with the operator, presenting documents, a difficult situation may develop in which it is necessary to identify the owner of the SIM card.

Ways to determine the owner of a SIM card

In a situation where the phone receives various messages with threats from illegally registered numbers, and through a personal account on the site there is no way to determine the owner of the SIM card. When the police make a formal request, mobile operator you will have to provide the necessary information.

Simple ways to determine

How to find out to whom a SIM card is registered, without much effort? In fact, such a procedure requires some effort. Cellular operators are given the right to process the personal data of their subscribers, and not to distribute them.

How to find out information about the owner of a number of a city or any mobile operator, the video will tell:

New technologies are constantly entering our lives, old ones are improving, accelerating, and becoming more convenient. Personal gadgets are especially valued by developers; new applications, games and programs are released almost daily. However, all this requires high-quality service from the Internet, since most utilities consume traffic. At the same time, the old 3G Internet standards can no longer cope, and the 4G format has replaced it. But not all phones and SIM cards support more modern technology, and new devices do not always turn on the updated network automatically. Correcting the situation is quite simple, just a few movements on the smartphone screen are enough.

What is 4G and what are its specifications

4G (from English fourth generation - fourth generation) - generation mobile communications with higher requirements. It is customary to refer to the fourth generation as promising technologies that allow data transmission at a speed exceeding 100 Mbit / s - to mobile (with high mobility) and 1 Gbit / s - to stationary subscribers (with low mobility).

Wikipedia

https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/4G

The 4G standard can be conditionally divided into two standards: LTE and WiMAX directly. However, in terms of its WiMAX technology, it can serve only “static” users, as well as mobile phones that move at speeds up to 115 km / h (you won’t catch the network on high-speed trains and autobahns). At the same time, despite its "belatedness" (4th generation LTE was released in 2009, and WiMAX in 2005), the LTE standard has become more popular and preferred for mobile networks.

The main characteristic that interests all users is the data transfer rate. According to the fourth generation standard, users with low mobility (speed up to 10 km / h) should receive up to 1 Gbps on their devices. For high mobility (from 10 km / h and more) - the speed will be up to 100 Mbps

At the same time, we should not think that we are getting the declared speeds, this will almost never happen. There are many factors that affect the transfer of data in wireless networks. Firstly, 4G technology is based solely on packet data transfer, and the speed even in wired networks of this kind can be lame. Information from the resource to the user passes through several nodes, and very often packets can be lost in the wilds of the web plexus. Therefore, the missing data is requested again, and this takes time. Secondly, there are always physical limitations. For example, terrain or network congestion.

4G standards were patented and began to be implemented in 2012, and for 5-6 years of using these networks, I have never had the cherished round numbers on speed tests.

Basic mobile format 4G Internet goes according to the LTE standard

How to find out if a smartphone supports 4G

If we talk about smartphones, it is now quite difficult to find a working device that does not support 4G technology. Qualcomm, the main chip manufacturer for smart phones, began production and implementation of processors that work with the LTE standard at the end of 2012. Therefore, if the model of your device is less than six years old, then for sure you can use 4G in it.

In my memory, the smartphone lived for a maximum of three and a half years, while two batteries deteriorated and were replaced, before the very “end”, the ability to connect to Wi-Fi deteriorated, and the last step to death was that the phone stopped detecting the network of the mobile operator. It was not possible to revive the device. I also heard from friends and acquaintances that with the most careful handling of devices, they are still covered in the region of the third year of operation, after which they need to be changed to new models.

There is an easy way to find out if your phone supports 4G connection or not. To do this, you need to climb a little in the settings of your smartphone.

  1. Open the “Settings” of the device, go to the “SIM cards and mobile networks” item.

    Open the “Settings” of the device, go to the item “SIM cards and mobile networks”

  2. Next, we go to one of the SIM-cards, no matter which one.

    Go to the settings of any of the connected SIM cards

  3. Click on the "Preferred network type" item.

    Open the tab "Preferred network type"

  4. We rearrange the setting (if available and not yet set) to “Preferably 4G (LTE)”. If there is no such item, the phone does not support such a standard.

    We rearrange the setting to the item "Preferably 4G (LTE)"

What to do if the phone does not support 4G

Unfortunately, the only guaranteed way out is to buy a new phone. Smartphones are initially programmed to work in certain frequencies, 2G and 3G networks differ from LTE standards, therefore it is technically impossible to connect to the corresponding standard. On the Internet, you can stumble upon possible applications or smartphone firmware that promise a change specifications, but don't be fooled: no program will force the receiver to work at a frequency to which it was not originally adapted. Such applications are likely to be malicious codes who can both steal personal data and make money transfers.

How to know if a SIM card supports 4G

There are several ways to find out if a SIM card supports a fourth generation connection:

  • using the USSD command;
  • instructions or a box with a SIM card;
  • with the help of an official store consultant.

If your SIM card was issued a long time ago, it is best to contact a mobile phone salon right away. Firstly, the consultants will give a qualified answer whether you can already use 4G or whether you need to replace the communication chip. Secondly, you can replace the SIM card immediately on the spot, without changing the number and completely free of charge.

To understand if your SIM has 4G support using the package, just look for the corresponding icon on it. Often, manufacturers flaunt it, and it is not difficult to find the treasured two characters.

Photo gallery: what the 4G badge looks like on plastic SIM card cases

Manufacturers of MegaFon SIM cards indicate support for 4G technology on the container Beeline SIM cards also contain a 4G indicator on the MTS container, like other operators, indicates support for 4G technology on the container Manufacturers of Tele2 SIM cards also prescribe whether the SIM card supports 4G

Also, some operators provide the opportunity to find out about 4G support from a working SIM card using a short USSD command:

  • "MegaFon" - * 507 # and a call button;
  • "Tele2" - * 156 # and a call button.

Beeline and MTS do not provide such an opportunity.

What to do if the SIM card does not support 4G and how to replace it with another one

If it suddenly turns out that the SIM card does not support 4G communication standards, you need to contact the nearest mobile operator salon so that the consultants replace the outdated chip with a modern one. It's best to call ahead hot service operator to see what replacement conditions are available. For example, do you need a passport of the owner of the SIM card or other documents. The procedure is completely free and takes only a few minutes. The old SIM number is transferred to the new chip, and the only drawback is that the contacts of the old SIM card will not be transferred to the new one. Therefore, before replacing, you should save the information on the phone.

It is very easy to fix the smartphone settings or replace the SIM card with the one corresponding to the new standard. The exception is too old devices that are long overdue to be changed to more modern models.

How SIM cards appeared

SIM stands for Subscriber Identification Module or Subscriber Identification Module. As the name implies, a SIM card is used to identify a subscriber in a cellular network.

At first, user identification on the network was carried out using only the manufacturer's cell phone number - ESN (Electronic Serial Number). When there were few subscribers and equipment manufacturers, this approach justified himself. As a result, the equipment, that is, a cell phone and a subscriber, were identified by a single code. Among other things, this approach gave rise to a complete dependence of, say, a package of services and a phone number on the device. That is, having changed your cell phone, you had to go to the operator's office in order for the serial numbers of your phone to be entered into the database. If the mobile phone broke down, it took some time for you to be able to use communication services again.

Much more convenient would be a phone-independent identification of the subscriber. This idea was guided by the developers of the GSM standard, who proposed to separate the identification of subscribers and equipment. The Finnish company Radiolinija was the first to apply this idea in 1991.

The proposed identification scheme is still in effect today. In particular, as we have already said, a SIM card is used to identify a subscriber in GSM cellular networks (as well as in many others). For completeness, we note that modern cell phones are identified by the system using a 15-digit IMEI number (International Mobile Equipment Identifier - International Mobile Equipment Identifier).

After talking about the history of SIM-cards, let's try to take a closer look at these interesting devices.

What is a SIM card: purpose and development
In short, a SIM card is a computer. A SIM card contains a microprocessor, buses for input and output of information, a set of types of memory typical for computers ROM (permanent), RAM (operational), EEPROM (rewritable). The card stores various data, some of which it handles with extreme care in order to ensure the safety of the subscriber.

In particular, the following information is stored on the card:
IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identifier) ​​- International an identification number mobile subscriber. In fact - the username in the system.

Ki (Key) – individual identification key.

ICCID (Integrated Circuit Card ID) – serial number cards.

IMCI and ICCID are stored unencrypted on the card and are relatively easy to read. But Ki is securely hidden from strangers, the card performs all operations with it using the internal processor and memory. Such secrecy is necessary for one simple reason - if someone finds out the IMSI, ICCD and Ki of your SIM card, he will be able to make calls on your behalf and for your money.

In addition to identification data, the card can store Additional information. In particular, the phone book, SMS messages, call lists, SIM menu. By the way, all of the above functions did not appear in SIM-cards immediately. So, in the early 90s, cards were equipped with 8 KB of memory and provided only the basic features (receiving and making calls, receiving SMS, roaming) necessary for working in cellular networks. In the mid-90s, the set of functions supported by the card expanded.

In the late 90s, cards with 16 and 64 KB of memory appeared, which, including more capacious copies, are still used today. Modern SIM-cards support a lot of functions, among which the so-called SIM Application Toolkit should be noted. This feature allows the operator to equip subscribers' phones with an additional menu item that gives access to various operator services.

Currently, SIM-cards are being created, the volume of which reaches hundreds of megabytes. In particular, the Msystems company produces cards under the general name MegaSIM, having volumes of 128, 256, 512 MB and 1 GB. A gigabyte card called S-SIM was announced at the end of 2006 by Samsung. This map allows you to store a lot of useful information- music, videos, games.

The idea of ​​SIM cards inspired UTStarcom to develop a new concept of mobile phone personalization. The essence of the concept is that a mobile phone should consist of a body, keyboard, display, speakers and necessary minimum microelectronic filling. And everything that is responsible for personalization and additional features device must fit on a special card called a MobileCard. This card can be compared to system unit a conventional PC, while the phone, according to the company's intention, is similar to a set of peripherals for connecting to a system unit.

Now that we've taken a closer look at SIM cards, let's talk about some tricks for using them.

Features of use
Many of us have experienced the problem of multiple SIM cards. The simplest (but most expensive) solution is to buy several phones - according to the number of these same cards. However, there are better ways. In particular, if you constantly use two or three SIM-cards, you can try to get a so-called Adapter for 2 SIMs (or even a tripler) designed to combine several chips from SIM-cards under one case. If two or three numbers are not enough for you, consider the so-called MultiSim + Reader - a card that combines several ordinary SIM cards - usually up to 10.
The essence of MultiSIM lies in the fact that the basic identification data from ordinary SIM cards is entered into this card. To obtain this data (in particular, Ki and IMSI), the card can be "hacked" using special software (and a SIM card reader - a SIM scanner). Not all types of cards can be hacked. For example, there are several encryption algorithms used to authenticate a subscriber. These are COMP128v1, which is the most widespread in Russia, and COMP128v2 - its implementation takes place in this moment. Only cards that use the COMP128v1 encryption algorithm are subject to hacking.

The encryption algorithm (as well as Ki) is used at the stage of user authentication by the network. It looks like this: Ki is known to the SIM card and the so-called AuC - (Autentication Center) - the authentication center. In order to verify the authenticity of the card, AuC sends a randomly generated 128-bit number to the device, which is processed using an encryption algorithm, for example, the already mentioned COMP128v1. Moreover, all calculations are carried out inside the map. The result is a 32-bit number (SRES) that is sent to the AuC for verification. If the SRES calculated by the AuC matches the SRES calculated by the card, then the card is authenticated and the user is connected to the system. The hack consists of bombarding the card with requests and calculating Ki based on its responses.

After a SIM card is hacked, its data can be entered on a double card. The creation of such cards is not to the liking of mobile operators, because it is always more profitable for them when the subscriber uses the services of one company.

Having discussed the features of SIM-card cloning, let's say a few words about the safety of their use.

Safe work with SIM-cards
SIM card is difficult electronic device, so it is easy to accidentally spoil or break it. The most common problem that many users have is that their device “does not see” or suddenly stops seeing the inserted SIM card. This can happen, for example, due to moisture condensation in winter, after the phone has been moved from a cold street to a warm room. In any case, this problem is treated as follows: the card should be pulled out of the device and gently wipe its contacts with a soft, lint-free cloth. After that, everything should work.

When it comes to security, SIM cards have several levels of protection. As a rule, subscribers have to deal with PIN and PUK codes. Strictly speaking, it is recommended to keep the phone in a PIN-protected state at all times, but rarely does anyone follow this recommendation.

Instruction

Try first to find the contract for the provision of communication services that you signed with this operator, or an envelope with card codes. It should also have a number on it.

If you did not find the contract, first check the balance on this SIM card (MTS - * 100 #, then the "call" button; "Beeline" - * 102 #, "call"; "Megafon" - * 100 #, "call "). With a positive balance, you can call any relative or friend and ask them to dictate your "old new" number to you or send an SMS message with this information.

Use the "Call/Call me back" service if your account does not have enough funds for an outgoing call. For MTS subscribers, there is a single request for all telecom operators: * 110 *, then comes the number of the subscriber you are asking to call back, then # and “call”. However, the quantity similar requests limited: no more than five per day. Megafon and Beeline subscribers can send up to ten requests per day also to subscribers of any telecom operator by dialing the command: * 144 *, then the number of the subscriber to whom the request is addressed, then # and “call”. After sending the SMS, you will receive a notification that the request has been delivered.

You can find out your number in another way. Dial on your phone: *110*10# (Beeline), *112# (MTS), *127# (MegaFon). Receive an SMS with your phone number.

Call your carrier support. Wait for a response and ask for information about your phone number. However, depending on the policy of the company, you may be asked to dictate your passport number or denied, advised to contact the operator's office directly.

Contact the operator's office with a passport. The manager will check your passport details and provide you with information about the phone number.

Instruction

The reminder service is free service and it can be used on the territory of Russia even when your balance is less than zero. MTS offers several ways to clarify information: using a USSD request and calling the support service.

To perform all actions to remind the number, the SIM card of the MTS operator must be installed in the phone and be in the call waiting state.

The first method is the most popular among subscribers. This is due to the fact that it is unnecessary to wait for a response from a contact center specialist. By dialing *123# on your phone and pressing the call key, you will see the number in the federal 11-digit format on the screen.

You can contact the support service by dialing 0887, after which you will need to select the desired item. Usually, in many regions, the mobile operator asks you to press the number 0, after which you will be automatically switched to a specialist. An employee of the company will dictate your number or send it via SMS.

Another very "household" way to find out your number is to call, for example, your friend on a mobile or landline phone with a determinant. But if you decide to act in this way, there must be the required amount on the balance sheet, since a minute of conversation costs a certain amount of money, according to tariff plan.

Also, when buying a SIM card, a number in the federal format must be written on its packaging.

A familiar situation - you forgot your own phone number. This happens especially often if you have several SIM-cards, and you use them in turn. There are several ways to find out your phone number.

Instruction

Some cellular networks provide a service that allows you to find out your own number. If yours is connected to Beeline, dial the USSD command *110*10#. The answer will come in an SMS message. If you are an MTS subscriber, use the USSD command *111*0887# for the same purpose, and you will receive a response in the same way. You can also, being a subscriber of this operator, call 0887, but when you are in roaming, such a call will be paid and expensive. Megafon operator provides this service not in all regions, the method of obtaining it may vary, and sometimes it is paid even when you are in your home region. As a subscriber of Megafon in the Moscow region, use the free USSD command *105*6*1#, and the North-West - the paid command *127#. The operator "Skylink" in the majority of the service to the subscriber of his number in automatic mode does not provide.

Using a landline phone, as well as a cell phone while roaming, or if the operator does not have the service of reminding your own number in automatic mode, use the following trick. Take another cell phone that belongs to you, which is enabled for caller ID, and whose number you know, and from the phone whose number is unknown, call it. When the phone rings, reject the call. You will find out your number for free even when roaming. Do not call a landline telephone with caller ID for this purpose. So you will find out only the last seven digits of the number, and the device, when it is determined, will automatically pick up the phone, and the call will be billed.

If you are a Beeline subscriber, you are in home network, and you have activated the service of unlimited sending MMS, and there is no other device at hand, send an MMS message of any content to your own address Email. Then go to your mailbox, and see what address the message came from. Keep in mind that actually sending MMS messages while using this service is not unlimited. There is a limit, and it is equal to 300 messages per day.

Finally, if none of the above options work for you, call your carrier's customer support and ask for the number you're calling from. When you are on your home network, this call is usually free. If necessary, tell the consultant your passport data.

An integral part cell phones GSM is a SIM card. It stores all user and service information. The SIM card number is indicated in the service agreement with the mobile operator when buying a phone. It happened that you did not remember the SIM-card number, and the contract is not at hand. How to determine the SIM card number?

Instruction

You can find out the SIM card number on Beeline by also calling *111#. Then go to the "My Beeline" menu, press the number 2, then 1. In the "My data" column, press the number 2 again.

If you are an MTS subscriber, then send a request * 123 #, and the number will also be displayed on the display of your phone now; or dial 0887 and press Call.

Scroll through the menu of your own phone, in some models in the "Service" tab there is a column - "My number". Press "OK" and the number of the inserted SIM card will appear on the display.

There are currently special devices for reading sim cards. One of these devices - Spy Reader - will be able to read any information: the last dialed numbers, subscriber's phone number, telecom operator - and recover deleted data.

And do not forget that in all problematic situations, specialists of the operators' service Call-centers help to sort it out at any time. Their numbers, as a rule, are already in the phone book of the SIM card, and are also written in the service agreement. Just dial short number and ask your question to the operator.

Advice 9: How Beeline subscribers find out their phone number

Not every owner of a mobile phone can remember his number, and the reasons for this are completely different. For example, a subscriber recently bought a SIM card, does not remember numbers well, or finds himself in an extraordinary situation when data is urgently needed in the form of a personal number, but it is difficult to navigate. To understand how you can recognize your Beeline phone, you need to consider all possible ways.

Find out your Beeline number when there is a phone or modem nearby

There is an opportunity to quickly and efficiently find out your Beeline phone if mobile device is in hand, and you can do it in one of the following ways:

1. Send a USSD command *110*10#, and the answer to it in the form of a subscriber's number should be displayed on the phone display. The combination can be sent without restrictions in quantity and time frame.

2. Call 067410 and receive the necessary information about the number in the form of a voice message.

3. Dial free single number operator Beeline 0611, after which, following the prompts of the answering machine, wait for the connection with the manager and ask him a question of interest.

4. Call a friend or send him a message asking him to dictate a forgotten number.

If you need to find out the phone number of the owner of a USB modem with a Beeline SIM card, then you need to do the following:

How to find out your Beeline number if there is no phone nearby

Often annoying situations happen to people when it is impossible to find out your phone number using a mobile or modem. So, the phone can be lost, it can be stolen. In such cases, the competent authorities and the operator will need a personal number to block it so that unscrupulous citizens cannot use it.

There are the following ways that allow you to find out your phone number of the Beeline operator:

1. Find the package from the SIM card, on which the number should be indicated;

2. Take a contract for the provision of services of the Beeline mobile operator and rewrite your number from there;

3. Go to friends or relatives living nearby and ask them for your phone number.

Finding out your Beeline phone is not so difficult, because the described methods are available to every subscriber in any situation. These methods do not require payment, any phone settings or connection additional services. And if you can’t remember your phone number, then one of these methods will surely be deposited in memory to come in handy at the right time.

Many online services use two-factor authentication. You enter the password, you receive an SMS with a code, you enter the code - you enter. But there is one caveat: if you forget your password, then you can often recover it via SMS too.

That is, as soon as someone gains access to your SIM card, all services that use two-factor authorization - from instant messengers (including the archive) to Internet banking - will come under the control of an attacker.

How SIM cards are stolen

You can, of course, just steal your phone, but then you will most likely quickly block your SIM card. Although in these few minutes, criminals can do what they need.

However, stealing the device itself is quite difficult and risky. Therefore, one of the most common types of theft has been getting a duplicate SIM card from your carrier.

It happens like this: knowing your full name and phone number, the criminal makes a fake power of attorney and comes to the operator's office with it. There he is given a new SIM card with your number.

Please note that this can only happen when the operator's employee is colluding with a fraudster, because usually a photocopy is not enough to restore a SIM card.

So, at the moment when a duplicate of your SIM card is made, your phone turns off, and the new owner gets the opportunity to receive your calls, call someone from your number himself. And, of course, receive SMS messages.

It turns out that the device is always with you and turned on, and even shows that it is online. It’s just that at some point you stop receiving incoming calls and messages, and you also can’t call anywhere. First you sin on the operator, then on the device, reboot it, then try to insert another SIM card, eventually call the call center to figure it out, and then ... It turns out that the number no longer belongs to you.

So, in one of the victims, the fraudster re-registered the SIM card for himself under a fake power of attorney. The victim wrote a complaint to the operator and a statement to the police. The claim was accepted, they asked to wait, but a day later the fraudster reissued the subscriber number again, now to a legal entity.

There are two ways to protect yourself from SIM card theft.

  • Do not publish your main number anywhere on the Internet - neither in social networks, nor in online store registration forms, nor on free classifieds sites.
  • Get another SIM card for two-factor authorizations, the number of which will be known only to you. Insert it into the second slot of the "two-card" or buy a simple phone for it for 500 rubles.

"Left" SIM-card in your name - this is in debt

Have you ever wondered who all these SIM cards that are sold on the streets are issued to? Illegal sellers in the crossings sell 1.5-2 million SIM cards a month, issued for stolen passport data. How it happens: accomplices of scammers from mobile phone shops enter the passport data of real people into the registration form, because if you come up with this just “out of your head”, they will figure it out very quickly. And so it seems that a person with such a passport really came. And yes, I bought two dozen numbers at once.

That is, you buy one SIM-card, and several more are “hung” on your data. This is called "dealer fraud". The fact is that the dealer receives a reward for each SIM card sold, so he does not hesitate to sell them by any means.

Criminals use these "left" SIM-cards for various frauds. One of them is the famous "Put money on this number." The second way is to drive the balances of these cards into negative territory (for example, by roaming or organizing an underground call center for guest workers), after which the operator, having found you by passport data, writes off the debt from your main number. And in which case, all claims of law enforcement agencies will be addressed to you.

Don't buy SIM cards from street vendors

So, for example, a SIM card was registered for one of the scam victims known to us, the existence of which he found out when the owner of the “fake” SIM card drove it into a small minus, and the operator warned about the debt. It was not possible to find out anything, but the debt had to be paid off.

You can protect yourself from reissuing a SIM card in the following way:

  • Do not leave your passport details anywhere on the Internet, especially when registering on different sites. An exception is the purchase of electronic train and plane tickets on trusted sites (for example, airlines and Russian Railways) and registration in financial services.
  • Buy SIM-cards only in branded offices of operators.

If a "left" SIM card has already been issued in your name, you need to apply to the police and the operator's office. However, be mentally prepared for the fact that the case will be “put on the brakes”, because you are unlikely to be able to prove that you did not come on such and such a number to such and such a communication salon.

3 safety rules

  • Do not turn off the SIM PIN request. Of course, it is inconvenient to enter it every time you turn on the phone. But attackers will have less chance if your SIM card gets into them.
  • Set a password graphic key or fingerprint to unlock your smartphone. This will prevent your data from being stolen.
  • There is nothing wrong with stopping by the operator’s office every few months on the way to find out which numbers are issued for your passport. If new ones have appeared, it is better to block them right away from sin.
