Money. Once I saw it was a stolen phone I did the honest thing and contacted the owner of the phone and let them know I had it. Turns out he had been robbed of it and another phone a few days before. He was glad to get it back. I'm out several hundred dollars/
I tried to sign him and his phone number up for dude on dude Craigslist but it requires too much verification for my new fake account I tried to use. Not going to use my real one.
Interesting. My wife had her iPhone 5 swiped at Costco a couple years ago. AT&T told us the phone would be worthless if anyone tried to activate it, but I think I read somewhere that most of them end up in foreign countries where they can actually be used. So you could've sold it to a ******** and gotten your money back.
I could have done that and gotten some of the money back, but figured I would attempt to get some good karma and get him his phone back.
I actually met with the police and the guy who owned the phone and made my claim as a part of his ongoing robbery report.
Depending on the jurisdiction, it might be too small potatoes for them to bother with. But good idea to report it imo.I had a credit card stolen and they rang up a $650 charge at a department store, where there would likely be surveillance footage of the transaction. I was surprised when the bank told me it would need to be over $5000 to warrant any investigation. Anything lower gets written off and passed on to all of us in higher interest rates.
If karma was a real thing, all these ******* lowlife thieves would get ball cancer.
Johnnycakes PM'ed me that the current exchange rate is one iPhone 6 for three Chinese wives.
I'm actually not surprised...I feel like the police don't really enforce the law for what they deem "little stuff."
Real life - no one knows - here - don't care if I look foolish. Hell, I was foolish. Just want to get the ####er back.
Strong bearded men to help him with his rape fetish?
They actually got their kit out to do this, but the guy I gave it back to had just wiped it down..
Here is the ad, he's still got it up.
I googled his # and it comes up with sites for escorts...you can tell us the truth now that you've blown your cover.
If you know where he works surely you can loudly shame him into coming up with the cash pretty quickly. There are lots of routes to go.
I'm letting them (police) go that route for now, but It's probable that the dude who sold me this phone isn't the guy who stole the phones, different description. I don't really want to do something like that because where he works is not a good part of town at all. Not worth getting shot for
You sure?
Am I missing something?
Huh? What do you use to buy and sell locally?
Naw mane, I'm way more street savvy than that. I only gave $375 for that stolen phone!
