System and method of verifying a number of a mobile terminal
First Claim
1. A client device comprising:
- a. a processor and a memory; and
b. an application stored in memory and executed by the processor, the application for;
1. generating on the client device data including a code which is hidden from a user of the client device;
2. storing a copy of the code on the client device before the code is transmitted to a server;
3. transmitting from the client device the code and a first input entered by the user to the server configured to thereafter send the code received from the client device to a target device associated with the first input and send a descriptive message, including the code, to the client device using the first user input, wherein the first user input is a unique identifier of the client device;
4. prompting, on the client device, for the user to enter the code as displayed on the target device;
5. obtaining on the client device a second input entered by the user; and
6. determining on the client device, validity of the first input, wherein determining the validity of the first input comprises comparing the second input with the copy of the code stored on the client device.

Abstract
A client device is coupled with a server. The client device prompts a user to enter a number associated with a mobile device, which can be the client device, and generates data including a code. The code is typically hidden from the user when the code is generated and is saved on the client device. The client device transmits the number entered by the user and the code generated by the client device to the server, which sends a message, including the code, to the mobile device associated with the number. The client device prompts the user to enter the code included in the message. Validity of the number is based on one or more factors, including the accuracy of the code entered by the user. In addition, validity of the number can also be based on whether the second user input was entered within a predetermined time limit.

14. A client device comprising a circuit configured to:
-
a. generate, on the client device, data including a code hidden from a user of the client device; b. store a copy of the code on the client device before the code is transmitted to a server; c. generate, on the client device, a transmission data stream, including the code and a first user input, to be transmitted to the server configured to thereafter send the code received from the client device to a device associated with the first user input and send a descriptive message, including the code, to the client device using the first user input, wherein the first user input is a unique identifier of the client device; d. prompt, on the client device, for the user to enter a code displayed on the client device; e. obtain, on the client device, a second user input entered by the user; and f. determine on the client device, validity of the first input wherein determining the validity of the first input comprises comparing the second user input with the copy of the code stored on the client device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A system for verifying a mobile number, the system comprising:
-
a. a network; b. at least one server communicatively coupled to the network; and c. at least one client device communicatively coupled to the network, wherein each client device includes a memory and instructions stored therein, wherein the instruction when executed cause that client device to; 1. generate, on the client device, data including a code hidden from a user of the client device; 2. store a copy of the code on the client device before the code is transmitted to a server; 3. transmit, from the client device, a first data stream, including the code and a first user input, to one of the at least one server, wherein the at least one server is configured to, after receiving the first data stream from the client device, send a descriptive message, including the code, to the client device using the first user input, wherein the first user input is a unique identifier of the client device; 4. receive, at the client device, a second data stream including the code, from the one of the at least one server; 5. display, on the client device, the code received from the one of the at least one server; 6. prompt, on the client device, the user to enter the code displayed on the client device; 7. obtain, on the client device, a second user input; and 8. determine, on the client device, validity of the first user input, wherein determining the validity of the first input comprises comparing the second user input with the copy of the code stored on the client device. - View Dependent Claims (20)
