If you find your phone, your line (SIM card) may be reactivated.
Most recent phones allow the data contained remotely (photos, SMS. ) and deactivate emails and other applications.
IMEI number
When you call your operator to suspend your line, it must communicate the IMEI number to you: Titlecontent (15 digits) of your phone. This is his identifier.
You will have to give it to the police or gendarmerie services. Without that, your phone cannot be blocked.
This number also identifies your phone if the police or the gendarmerie find it.

Where to contact ?
The police are responsible for sending the device to block the aircraft to your operator.
