Femtocells have been proposed as solution for high-speed mobile network (i.e. LTE) bandwidth requirements. Research work in the field of securing femtocells is still in its infant stage. In this research contribution an attempt has been done to identify and mitigate a possible attack in the femtocells where locational information about a femtocell user is disclosed. The proposed mechanism notifies the femto entity under threat about the attack. Also a novel Multi-hop algorithm has been proposed to hide the details of the communicating parties from the attacker.
