pThree new design innovations to tackle mobile phone crime, including a device that locks a phone and alerts the owner if it is taken away from them, have been unveiled by the UK Design Council./p

pThe prototypes were developed by teams of designers and technology experts as part of a challenge to protect mobile phone users from crimes such as mobile phone identity fraud, which rose by over 70% in 2009, to make phones more secure and to prevent unauthorised use of mobiles for electronic ‘contactless’ payments, soon to be become widespread in the UK./p
