I know we have group hugged, but lets clear up some things:

1. You said that there are only 10 possible digits for each number so how hard can it be? Well lets really think about this. an IMEI number is 15 digits, with each digit having 10 possible solutions. So that would give us 1.0 × 10 to the 15h power OR 1000000000000000 possible solutions. Now this can be less becuase certain numbers may stay the same for certain carriers, but I have never looked into that.

2. In one of your messages you said 'i didn't know IMEI was so sensitive.' I think you may have jumped the gun with your post, but a little research on IMEI on wiki pedia would give some insight to a lot.

Okay all better, group hug again

Thanks for the effort sorry for the responses, but it is the interweb.
