SIM Card Copy

[Tilman Baumann]

SIM cards are smartcards. They can not be copied by design!

The only way to duplicate a SIM is to hack it. No idea if and how far 
that is possible. But it is certainly not legal.


Ask your provider for a duplicate SIM. Many providers will give you 
multiple identical SIM if you need them. (At least here in germany)
