it's mine. I'm glad it's safe at your place. Can you please mail it to me? thanks

Why don't you just take it to AT&T and turn it in instead of keeping it?

Kind of like keeping someones wallet when it has an id in it but since they did not come and claim it does not mean its okay to keep it.

Yaris Hilton · 02-20-2010, 08:28 AM

I agree.

jackrabbit · 02-20-2010, 09:23 AM

i thought of giving it back to the provider and my friend works there he said that mostlike the person that will take it will mostlikely keep it so might as well keep it and its not at&t by the way...anyways the wifes iphone gone missing a year ago maybe this is it coming back..unfortunetely no hack for password on ver 3.2.1.

I understand your trepidation but this is a test of your character, and you are failing. One does not base a good and correct deed on whether someone else will undo it. That is the undoer's issue and burden - not yours.

Always try to do the right thing and let the chips fall where they may.

I've always believed lost goods kept, bring badluck till they are returned/turned in~

jackrabbit · 02-20-2010, 12:00 PM

ok just called the provider and gave them my number to call when they find the owner.....

Thank you!!

You know they can track these devices.

I know here in the States (may not work on all phones but some) if you declare your phone stolen, they can make them impossible to use. I'm not sure exactly how that works though. Some guy explained that to me when I was selling my old cell phones at a garage sale because people were asking me if I had reported them stolen already.

Gideon · 02-20-2010, 02:53 PM

^ If it's a CDMA phone, they'll mark the ESN as stolen and the phone will be unable to be activated. (Usually people will then go to Cricket/Metro PCS and have them flash it to their network because neither one will do a check with the originating carrier if it's stolen.)

If it's a GSM phone they do the same with the IMEI, but really that's worthless because you can still pop your SIM card into a GSM phone that has had it's IMEI marked as stolen and the phone will still register on the network and operate normally.

marcus · 02-20-2010, 02:55 PM

stealing and finding has a totally different meaning...just my 1 cent.

Gideon · 02-20-2010, 03:00 PM

^ Good to know, I hope I find something you lost then. Since I won't need to return it.

Finding something that the owner can be identified and keeping it anyway is stealing.

Have we not learned anything from the Brady Bunch Tiki Idol fiasco?

I hope all you ppl who like to keep things that dont belong to you find yourself in a situation where your wife is missing or has been lost or maybe your kids too. I bet you cry like a girl because youll want them back.
