     To check your mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on
      your phone : *#06# A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number 
      is unique to your handset. Write it down & keep it somewhere safe. When
      your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider & give them this
      code.They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief
      changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably
      won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't
      use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people
      stealing mobile phones.
