T-Mobile has won a final judgment and permanent injunction against pre-paid phone traffickers working out of Brooklyn, N.Y. The traffickers would buy T-Mobile pre-paid phones in bulk, open them, unlock them, and then sell them at a higher cost to unsuspecting customers. A federal judge has permanently barred the defendants -- Ajay Mehta, Wireless Touch, Talk2Me, and IA Communications -- from the bulk purchase, unlocking and resale of T-Mobile phones. T-Mobile was awarded $5 million in damages. T-Mobile still has similar on-going cases in other markets.
