yES, meet a police or dss officer. They do have someone in charge of stolen phone cases.

Price should be around 40k to 80k

The price of tracking is almost same as getting a new phone

If the phone is so expensive, track it, and pay the police for the service, no matter the amount of money, as far as it is 100% guaranteed that they would surely apprehend the thief, if they track and arrest the thief, he would pay back in double of all what you've lost. If it's just a cheap Tecno or itel phones, forget about it and get a new phone.

go to police, ask of the SIB department. price is 20K, u can tip them 5K join. they will refund your 20k when the thief is caught. and he is going to pay for damages and may be charged to court.

Don't waste time, the phone has been tempered and Modified to prevent tracking. All thanks to how the police where misusing the tracking facility. Tracking is supposed to bet done when big crime is committed like robbery, terrorism or murder but police will track a misplaced phone of 30k and The unlucky fellow who picked it and the one who bought it will have to pay for bail to free themselves Thus, Drastically reducing the succes rate of Tracking because thieves became smarter and can block tracking, some even remove the board and break it then put another new board or sell the parts of the phone.

This is wrong. Why discouraging owners from tracking their lost properties? Are you an accomplish in the act? Don't you know that if we all endeavor to seek for the services, the rate of phone theft we drop as it is in advance countries? Do you know that most tracking are now done free by our policemen ? Don't you know that even phone sold in pieces after dismantling can be tracked since they will always like to sell the motherboard as parts ?.......let me stop here

Well said. Even if it's a 10k phone, tracking will discourage the upsurge in phone theft

The Board is been sold as scrap and the chips removed and recycle. I am not discouraging him Tracking was effective when it started and now the success rate is very slim. I've been tracked (soft target), I have gone to track 3 times ( no success) and I have tracked phone myself, it was off the radar last location was at Kano BUK road and the sim had no phone number, no history, no messages and it was never used again. That means the person who took the phone knows what he's doing. I'm not discouraging him, I'm just lashing out on how at first tracking was abused and now it's less effective. He can still go and try his luck.

believe u me, people come from Lagos, Ibadan, Osun, Onitsha,Niger and Abuja to track their clients stolen or lost phones. One was withdrawing close to a million with stolen phone, he was later nab at an ATM trying to withdraw more cash. He was tracked all the way from Jos to Kwara state
