ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus using a PIN number for preventing theft of cellular telephone service is disclosed. The PIN is requested silently by a visual display panel and entered silently by recalling the number from memory. The PIN number is transmitted as a hookflash message during each call at a limited, variable delay after the mobile unit switches to the voice channel and the cell site requests the PIN number by pressing a single key. This one-touch PIN transmission is also compatible with one-touch dialing, automated mail access, and linked number operations.
