There has been an increase in cell phone thefts in West Hollywood and throughout Los Angeles County in recent months.

Because cell phones are now an everyday part of life for most people, criminals have stepped up their thefts of your favorite communication device.
According to West Hollywood Lt. Dave Smith, West Hollywood is a target for rings of cell phone thieves because, “people here are sophisticated and have the best of electronics, and there’s a big crowd coming in for entertainment.”
He said, “These rings prey on people who are walking to their cars or home after a night out who might be checking their texts and not paying enough attention to their surroundings.”
It’s one of the easiest things for crooks to grab, and the good ones carry a high price when sold as new in kiosks around the state.
One ring got nabbed recently by WeHo detectives, said Lt. Smith, when one stolen phone turned up for sale in a kiosk at the Fox Hills Mall.
As these rings operate, Los Angeles County Sheriff's detectives and other police agencies have found several common denominators with cell phone thefts.
Cell Phone Safety Tips:
1. Password Protect Phone: Use the security lock code, or PIN feature, to lock your phone. Make it more difficult for others to access your personal information in your stolen phone.

2. Save Serial Number: Save your cell phone's serial number model and make, and keep it in a place where you can find it. Your serial number proves its yours.
3. Don't Store Secrets: Consider carefully what information you store in your phone. If it's stolen, it's not that difficult for bad guys to pull out your private information before clearing the memory and reselling the device.
If it would create too big of a disaster if your information fell into someone else's hands, don't store it. You may not guarantee your phone won't be stolen, but if the information isn't in the phone, the thief can't use it for Identity Theft.
4. Activate the Tracking Device: Activate the Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking system on your phone or other electronic device. If the device does not have a GPS tracking system, there is after-market software you can buy. Tracking devices often lead to your stolen device and lots of other stolen property.
5. Distracted Walking and Talking - Stay aware of your surroundings. Don't walk down the street talking on your phone or texting unaware of your environment or of people nearby. Thieves it when you do that, and while you talk, they grab. Also, falling into a fountain or getting hit by a train is far worse than having your cell phone stolen.
6. Hide and Go Eat - When eating in a restaurant (or relaxing in a public place), don't leave your phone on the table. It's too easy for crooks to grab it and run. Put it away and enjoy your meal.
7. Don't Delay: If your phone gets stolen, find another phone to use and call your local sheriff's or police station as soon as possible. Call now, don't wait until you arrive at your next destination.
8. Be a Good Witness: If you see the suspect, don't try to get it back from the suspect. Use caution but try to get a good description of the suspect and vehicle (license number, color, and model) and the last known direction of travel. Write it down if you can and call the cops so we can get it back for you. That's why we're here.
Partner to prevent or report crime by calling your local Sheriff’s station. Or if you wish to remain Anonymous, call “LA Crime Stoppers” by dialing 800-222-TIPS (8477), or text the letters TIPLA plus your tip to CRIMES (274637,) or using the website http://lacrimestoppers.org/
