I think if the consignor has not taken the correct steps then there is a risk the receiver would be able to pay other secured creditors using the consignors assets. For example if …

for phones its a bit difficult because i don't think you can egress out ip traffic without root or jailbreak on iphone and iOS. but i guess on desktop this should be possible
