Method and system for tracking mobile communication device using MMS

A method for tracking electronic communication devices which use a removable identity card, the method comprising:

• providing a menu option for inputting a password, a destination Email address/phone number and a customized message for sending a Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) alert message when a user activates a tracking control operation;
• inputting a password, destination Email address/phone number and a customized message for sending the alert MMS message;
• storing user-authentication information for accessing the MMS alert message, the destination Email address/phone number, and any predefined text to be sent in a Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM), along with identity data and tracking control feature-activation status data;
• comparing the identity data stored in the NVRAM with new identity data whenever a new identity card is inserted and once the tracking control feature is successfully activated;
• capturing still images or video if the identity data stored in the NVRAM and the new identity data are different;
• and
• transferring the captured images/videos along with pre-stored contact phone numbers through the MMS message or sending the images/videos to the pre-stored Email addresses along with the current location information of the mobile device if the current location information is available.
