ABSTRACT:
A system for reducing fraudulent use of a mobile telephone number in a radio telecommunications network. The system automatically bars call originations from the mobile telephone if the mobile telephone does not register with the network for a predetermined time period, or if the mobile telephone does not originate a call for a second predetermined time period. The system determines when a mobile telephone originates a call, measures a predetermined time period with a timing mechanism, and starts the timing mechanism when the mobile telephone originates a first call. The system then determines whether a second call originated from the mobile telephone during the predetermined time period and restarts the timing mechanism at the time that the mobile telephone originates a second call upon determining that the second call originated from the mobile telephone during the predetermined time period. The system reauthorizes the mobile telephone to originate calls in the network upon verification of a personal identification number entered by the subscriber.
