Abstract

Approaches for generating an alert in an absence of a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag in proximity to a mobile device are provided herein. RFID tags are detected in proximity to the first mobile device, which has a RFID receiver. The alert is generated in response to alert conditions, including a determination that a RFID tag identifier stored in a first profile list is not among detected RFID tags and that an RFID tag stored in the first profile list is not in proximity to a second device. The alert is transmitted to the second mobile device, wherein the alert adds, responsive to the stored RFID tag not being among the detected RFID tags at the first device, the stored RFID tag to a second profile list associated with the second mobile device for storing RFID tag identifiers, wherein the second profile list is separate from the first profile list.
