Did you know that 1 in 4 mobile phones are either lost or stolen each year.  When you lose your credit card you make a quick phone call and the card is cancelled so anyone who finds it or the person who stole can no longer use it.

iTag has launched a new service that offers similar protection for your phone.

To end an era when 1 in 4 mobile phones is either lost or stolen each year, the iTag company today officially unveiled its innovative new mobile Lost and Found application and services. With immediate support of Android handsets, iTag additionally announced that it will offer FREE Premium lifetime service for the first 10,000 people to register at iTag.com.

iTag is a FREE service that gives mobile phone owners the ability to locate and protect lost or stolen phones. From iTag’s safe and secure website, owners can literally view the location of their phone on a map. Consumers can also make their phone ring from iTag.com, even if it is set to silent or vibrate. As an added precaution against thieves, if someone switches the phone’s SIM card, an alert is sent and the owner can view the new number to give it to the authorities.

• Locking the keys so no one can use the device
