When you will report an IMEI number to your service provider, they will enter that number in their Central Equipment Identity Register. Once an IMEI will be on the Central Equipment Identity Register, you mobile will not work which means that it will be useless for other persons. Also, it is essential to mention that IMEI number is different as compared to SIM. People think that changing the SIM will help them to use a mobile. However, if IMEI number may be listed on Central Equipment Identity Register, you will never be able to use that mobile even if you will change the SIM.
