Do NOT steal someone's iPhone.

[Dave]

This heartwarming story had me in stitches. It's kinda long so I won't post it here, but this dude had his iPhone stolen...and he's very resourceful.

Holy crap that guy is my hero.

 

[MindDetective]

That was a fun read.

 

[General Specific]

HA! Awesome. Foiling theives with smarts and the power of the internet!

 

[Shegokigo]

Loved every entry!

1) Its kinda scary how much personal info can be obtain with just a name and/or a phone number these days.

2) This guy is Batman. But nerdier.

I have to agree with some of the commenters: the guy was lucky the thief was an idiot. Let's hope he doesn't track down the author with a gun.

 

[Espy]

WOW. Yeah, he was lucky this guy was an idiot. Great read though!

I remember reading a similar story from about 6 months ago...
...and found it...

Nice, my favorite line:

Absolute silence.

Ramiro started giggling.

 

[KCWM]

Nice!

Downside, I believe MobileME costs 99 bucks. Add that on top of the Apple Care Plan (70 bucks or so) and the iphone can get pricey.

Funny story though.

I'm going to leave you all with an old addage a girl's daddy once told me that holds true to this day, "Son, keep it in your pants." Amen, sir. Amen

Hey hey hey! It's time to play the game that no one gives a moment's care about: "There's two ways I could reply to this."

I'm going to leave you all with an old addage a girl's daddy once told me that holds true to this day, "Son, keep it in your pants." Amen, sir. Amen

There's two ways I could reply to this:

1) *ahem* what exactly were you trying to do to that girl's daddy?

2) But how else is she expected to gain the all-important ball experience?

 

[Shadazz]

This is Dave telling you all to fuck off because he's getting an iPhone soon. Haha!

For more internet justice, look up P-P-P-P-POWERBOOK.

 

[Espy]

I can't believe people accused him of racism because he said the word "honkey".

I just did and read the whole thing....and I'm not sure that's a win. The dude who did it is now just gone? And we never find out if the escrow company was legit or not. Hmmm.

Thanks for the heads up.
