If someone is trying to steal your cell phone, by all means you should scream to scare the culprit away. But why waste your own lungs when the phone can scream for you?

The Mobile Manager service from Synchronica, a mobile device management company for mobile operators and enterprises, can not only remotely lock and wipe data from cell phones as soon as you report it missing, but it can also send a horror movie-like scream to your cell phone to annoy the thief. So, if you realize your phone was stolen, contact the system administrator who's in charge of your company's Mobile Manager software, to lock the data and to activate the Synchronica Scream feature for you. The thief will not be able to access your phone book, calendar, music, or any other data stored on your phone.

But, if the thief is smart enough to take out your battery, then the scream feature is useless. However, even if he puts the battery back in, your phone will still be locked and will continue to wail.

Listen to the Scream feature here. (You may want to turn down your volume because it's fairly loud!)

And while you're at it, listen to the interview with the CEO to hear the scream over and over again!

Forget scaring away thiefs. I'd so prank people with this for Halloween!
