International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) is a unique number for each mobile phone, according to Digital Trends.

IMEI numbers for cellular phones connected to a GSM network are stored in a database. To know your IMEI number, dial *#06#.

It is very important to note down this number because it could help you when you lose your device.

According to Spiez.com, the 15-digit number allotted to every GSM phone is a security feature you can use on the IMEI Phone Tracker.

The service helps you find the location of your device.

Once you find the phone, you can choose to block it so that whoever has it cannot use it.

There are also a number of companies offering tracking services for phones.
