Abstract
An anti-data theft structure in an electronic device includes a second cover, a printed circuit board (PCB), a connector, a plurality of terminals, and an elastic element. The PCB includes a first press piece. The connector is rotatably coupled to the second cover and defines a plurality of slots facing PCB. A number of terminals are received in the slots according to a predetermined order. The elastic element is located between the connector and the second cover. When the first press piece resists against connector, the terminals are electrically coupled to the PCB to allow normal working. When the first press piece is separated from the connector, the connector is rotated away under the elastic force to cause the terminals to fall from the slots. Reassembly of the connector contacts so as not to be in the predetermined order causes lockdown and lockout of the electronic device.
