There are various methods used to obtain the IMEI. GSM handsets do not have ESN or MIN, only an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number. GSM cloning occurs by copying a secret key from the victim SIM card, typically not requiring any internal data from the handset (the phone itself). Modifying these, as well as the phone's Preferred Roaming List (PRL) and the mobile identification number, or MIN, can pave the way for fraudulent calls, as the target telephone is now a clone of the telephone from which the original ESN and MIN data were obtained. The ESN or MEID is typically transmitted to the cellular company's Mobile Telephone Switching Office (MTSO) in order to authenticate a device onto the mobile network. To obtain the MEID of your phone, simply open your phone's dialler and type *#06# to get its MEID number.
