A second, identical SIM card would be handy – but can you simply copy the card with the chip?
Copying a SIM card – is it possible at all?
For data protection reasons, you cannot simply copy or clone your SIM card.
- While there are many instructions on the Internet on how to clone your SIM card, you should not trust them.
- In addition, malware is often hidden behind the software used to access your private data. You should become suspicious especially when entering account information.
- Therefore, contact your provider. Many mobile phone providers offer a second card. This usually costs you a one-off amount, but you can be sure that your card is safe.
