Beware of mobile talks at the airport in Brazil

[brasilmen]

Criminals gangs copy at the airport the phone numbers of incoming guests (scan the mobile phone frequencies) and calls then intensively on these numbers.

Moin,
The thing in itself is an old hat.
Works but devices (yet?) not for GSM.

Quote from GoMoPa:

Avoid therefore large crowds if you want to make calls with your mobile phone. Have no talks at crowded places (train station, airport)

You may phone because at least at night, since a not see yet.

But seriously. The pirate ports, generally Brazil A disease in Brazil was around 2000-2003, but at that time only at the old phone system called cloning. My mobile is been cloned several times, however the huge phone bills, usually calls abroad without of the TELEMIG were cancelled, the device was new programiert and the wars. Uncomfortable of course blocking of the device and the subsequent paperwork and the loss of data on the phone, sometimes 3 times in the year. The companies have, however, long nothing done and ultimately then exchanged the devices against GSM mobile phones that were considered clone-safe.

And I thought that even to this day I am the last years only have monthly in Belo and have not heard that. Hence my question: someone warms da (GoMoPa) on only old coffee or this is a new thing now for GSM devices dangerous. How are your current experience.

The advice is of course meaningless, at some point, you must turn on Yes his device and although (possibly) wait for the crooks at the airport, but the chance is that you () is chosen randomly, even less. And because where Brazil is inanimate, is also not a mast.

Moin,
The clonen GSM is not state of the art (without SIM card).
The phone logs on with his IMEI (unique phone number) and the card number on the net.
If the provider a few times during, would also possible stolen phones worldwide to lock it and thus to discourage theft.
But it sold probably prefer new devices.
A phone was stolen just upon entry in my apartment (Yes Germany) me .

Greeting

The clonen GSM is not state of the art (without SIM card).

just, and therefore it is humbug, this info, the brasilmen as sold as news to propagate at all to Europeans.

the chips, which the tourist which arrives at a Brazilian airport has in his cell phone, can not be cloned. so the tourist can also involve his handy.

and when brasilmen only wants to turn his cell phone in 6 km distance, then this is worth his thing, but with security no recommendation.

Technically, it is currently only the PF able to filter out the numbers from the GSM transmission packages (which of course does not mean that there is also criminal associations, which have not spared these significant cost and beschaft have entsprechendde devices).

Also possible is the cell management computer by "Recording" of data packets on one. The AUfwand is also not without.

However, with this data, it is not possible to clone the SIM chip.

And the nonsense with the crowd alone is already a reference to the "quality" of these messages: the more people are close together and using their mobile phones, the "fish out" a single conversation becomes more complicated. The authors of this alert should contact times specialists at one table and explained times exactly (and show with measuring technology), how digital phone now works!

As was mentioned, it was still possible in the bronze age of digital mobile phone technology, today this doesn't work.
