FAQ's
MobiCHECK® SHARE is a secure data-sharing network that helps businesses, insurers, networks, recyclers and law enforcement reduce mobile-related crime and fraud. It allows accepted members to share and receive intelligence about devices that may be lost, stolen, blocked, subject to an insurance claim, or otherwise high risk.
MobiCHECK® SHARE helps close the gap between a device being reported as risky and that device being traded, recycled or resold. By sharing device intelligence across trusted organisations, the system makes it harder for criminals to profit from stolen, fraudulently claimed or suspicious handsets.
MobiCHECK® SHARE is designed for organisations that handle, assess, investigate or trade mobile devices. This includes recyclers, refurbishers, mobile networks, insurers, retailers, law enforcement teams, claims handlers and other fraud-prevention partners.
MobiCHECK® SHARE can support checks against device status data linked to IMEI numbers, including information that may indicate a device is lost, stolen, blocked, subject to an insurance claim, hotlisted, watchlisted or otherwise of interest to participating members.
A Hot List is used to alert the network to high-risk devices and help prevent them being traded. A Watch List can be used more discreetly, allowing selected organisations to receive alerts if a device of interest appears in the trading ecosystem without necessarily broadcasting the alert to all parties.
For insurers, MobiCHECK® SHARE can help identify devices linked to claims, detect suspicious activity and reduce the risk of fraudulent claims. By connecting device intelligence with trading activity, insurers can gain better visibility over devices that may reappear in the market after being reported lost, stolen or claimed against.
For recyclers and refurbishers, MobiCHECK® SHARE helps reduce the risk of buying or processing devices that may later be found to be blocked, stolen, claimed or suspicious. This supports safer intake decisions, cleaner stock handling and stronger due diligence before resale.
Yes. MobiCHECK® SHARE can support law enforcement by providing intelligence around device movement, trading activity and devices of interest. This can help investigations where mobile devices are linked to theft, fraud, organised crime or repeat suspicious trading patterns.
MobiCHECK® SHARE is designed around secure data sharing between accepted members. The aim is to support fraud prevention and crime reduction while ensuring that data is handled responsibly and only shared within a controlled, legitimate-use environment.
Yes. Organisations handling device data at scale can use MobiCHECK® SHARE to support higher-volume checks and intelligence matching. This is particularly useful for insurers, recyclers, networks and other teams that need to process large volumes of IMEI or serialised device data efficiently.
Mobile device fraud often crosses organisational boundaries. A device may be claimed through an insurer, traded through a recycler, blocked by a network, or identified by law enforcement. Data sharing helps connect those signals so that suspicious devices are identified earlier and handled more safely.
Organisations interested in joining MobiCHECK® SHARE should contact MobiCode to discuss eligibility, use case and membership requirements. The network is intended for trusted organisations with a legitimate role in reducing mobile device crime, fraud and risky device trading.
