Can you get duplicate IMEI?

Have there ever been reported cases of duplicate IMEI numbers, whether un-intentional or deliberate? Yes, it's possible. There are some IMEI Changer programs on the internet, and on some phones it's possible to change the IMEI.

Can I use IMEI to find serial number?

No. They're both tied to the phone itself. Every phone has its own IMEI and serial number. The International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number is a unique identification number used by phone companies to link the device to a particular user account.

Can 2 mobiles have same IMEI number?

A smartphone's IMEI is like a digital fingerprint: unique to each and every device. It's used by telecom companies to provide network connectivity on a SIM card, and since the IMEI number of two devices cannot be the same, it's also used to track and trace lost devices or criminals.
