Singapore Police Force Handphone IMEI Tracing System

Handphones have become a primary target for robbers, cheats and snatch thieves. Handphone ownership in Singapore has also become increasingly prevalent and it has resulted in a vibrant handphone resale industry where used handphones are easily bought and sold via secondhand dealers.

To curb this problem and deter handphone thieves from selling their stolen handphones to the public and/or secondhand dealers, the Handphone IMEI Tracing System (HITS) has been developed to enable the identification of stolen and lost handphones, using each handphone's unique 15 or 17 digit International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number.

You are advised to screen a handphone's IMEI number with HITS before making any purchase of a secondhand handphone to safeguard yourself from purchasing handphones that are reported stolen or lost. When screening with HITS, a 'WANTED' result will be shown if an IMEI has been reported stolen or lost to the Police, and you are advised to alert the Police immediately.

Besides using this HITS Internet screening facility, you can also perform a screening using the HITS Short-Message-Service (SMS) screening interface. For more details on performing an SMS screening, please refer to the (FAQ) .

(Note: To retrieve the IMEI number of your handphone, please key *#06# on your handphone keypad.)

Unsure If The Secondhand Phone You Are Buying Is Reported Stolen or Lost? SMS 74688 To Check

Handphone ownership in Singapore has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. Not only has this resulted in a vibrant handphone resale industry, in which handphones are bought and sold via secondhand dealers, but handphones have also become a target for thieves.

The Handphone IMEI Tracing System (HITS), an online handphone screening service, was developed and launched in 2006 to deter handphone thieves from selling off stolen handphones to secondhand dealers and the public. The system uses each handphone’s unique International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number to identify handphones which have been reported stolen.

Where screenings could only be done via the Internet previously (accessible via Police's e-Services webpage at http://www.spf.gov.sg/epc/index.htm), the HITS system has now been enhanced to allow for screenings to be easily done via Short-Message-Service (SMS) as well. From 27 October 2009 onwards, members of the public and secondhand dealers can easily check if the secondhand phones they are about to purchase have been reported stolen or lost via the Internet and SMS. Through this enhancement, the Police hope to deter handphone related crimes by providing a more convenient and effective avenue for members of the public to perform IMEI screening.

For Singaporeans, Permanent Residents, Employment Pass and Work Permit holders, an SMS screening can be performed by sending "SPFHITS<space>NRIC No/FIN No<space>IMEI No" to 74688. For others, simply send "SPFHITS<space>Identity No<space>O<space>IMEI No" to 74688. Normal SMS charges apply.

If the screening result is "WANTED", members of the public are advised to proceed to any Neighbourhood Police Centre (NPC) or Neighbourhood Police Post (NPP) to lodge a Police report immediately. Members of the public are also advised that it is an offence to retain a handphone that has been reported stolen or lost.

Members of the public are strongly urged to screen the IMEI number before purchasing any secondhand phones and play their part to deter crime.

Let's hope we get better updates soon... like passcode needed if you wish to off the phone, or SMS sent to a certain designated numbers if sim card is changed.
