What I want to know is, why would someone knowingly come on here to ask for advice on how to do something shady like taking a phone that clearly doesn't belong to them??

I know the economy is bad and all, but that's no excuse to be a thieving *******.

I bet a lot people now know not to leave things around the OP....

 

total DIC move! take it to a att store jerkoff

no one called it? give me a break!! no excuses! do the right thing!

want a iphone? then cough up 100$ and get a refurbished one of your own

*** i really wish att would do more to track lost and stolen phones! there is sooooo much private info on peoples phones these days that losing it straight SUCKS!!! shoot id pay 300$ to recover my phone and see the punk caught with it behind bars!

the technology to track the phone is their but getting them to do it is another story

 

Hey Wimp,



PLUS busting yourself out on I-Club FTMFL. Drive your *** over to an ATT store, return the phone and show your GF she's with a man and not a *****.

 

so what are your plans? you going to keep it or return it?

 

this right here, fer realz.

Funny thing living in SF is everybody respects the lost cell phone rule. I have honestly had my Blackberry returned to me 4 times now through cabbies, bartenders, or just random partyers. Its an unspoken rule here that if you text yourself the next day claiming your phone, 90% of the time it will get back to you, and I've returned my share of other peeps phones too. If they havent texted, I would just take to to an AT&T store, thats just me though.

 

BTW Lurk, nice Menace 2 Society reference there, never seen that one before

 

Maybe he knows something about the BAM shirts?!?

 

IBtheOP has been using this phone for a bit now. He wanted to come on here to justify his actions.

Sadly... the youth of today pulls bull**** like this.

OP... You aren't *entitled* to that phone. How would you feel if someone came to your house/place of business, and stole your wheels/brakes/interior/top mount/CAR?

 

karma. not to mention stolen iphone is felony big dog.

 

yup, I'd @ least make an attempt to return it. I've found lost/stolen phones before, once they are reported by the owner, the cell phone provider locks the esn out from the network so ppl can't re use the phone. I mentioned an electronics recycler since these days we cant toss anything electronic into the regular trash.

So yeah, I'm down with 'doing the right thing' of trying to get someones expensive *** phone back to them, and/or having it disposed of properly.

 

I dont see anything wrong with "finders keepers", but Id make a conscious effort to find the person. Its cool that you waited a week before doing anything to see if they would find it.

I would do two things, call the store and ask if anyone came in asking for a "lost cell phone". Im sure anyone who works there would say it was theirs if you said it was an iphone. Then Id try to play some of the songs from teh iphone through itunes and find the email address. Then Id email them and wipe the phone and start using it (T Mo or AT&T) If they email back at some point, Id return it. Otherwise Id use it.

Its not like you stole it, you found an abandoned phone. I just spent $655 on a new iphone, so I would be SUPER PISSED if I lost it and it would be really cool if someone returned it, but it would be my fault for being careless enough to lose it in the first place.

 

return that **** to ATT you ***!

 

you can do something calle moble wipe on the Iphone from any computer, you just have to have Apples MobleMe. And we can track a phone as long as it has power to it.
