I Hate Thieves - Cell Phone Attempt

[Shock6050]

As mentioned above. Went to a few hardware stores this past weekend, then a gas station. Pretty sure when paying I pulled out my cell and wallet as they were in the same shorts pocket. Got home and realized I couldn’t find my cell so tracked it…was in the area but not exactly where I preciously was at. However, I backtracked and stopped at all places I was at….no luck. Went back home a saw it still showing up, so ringed it and texted I’m coming to retrieve my phone as I now brought my ipad which will continue to show where it is at. Well when close, I’m pretty sure whoever tried to steal it, chucked the phone out the car window but kept the cheap case. Ended up finding it in the road, most likely run over. It was my work phone which I actually use for everything, so it shouldn’t be a problem to get a new one. Just sucks people can’t keep their hands off things that are not theirs. Here’s the aftermath.

What a bunch of idiots everyone knows that you can’t steal a cell phone anymore you can track them turned off smh
Second why can’t people just call you or when you called answer and just say I found your phone or better give it to the register at the gas station smh
I can’t stand liars and thieves
Losing your phone sucks brother sorry to see this the world is a shitty place sometimes

We could talk about how people suck all day. On a side story. I was in Kyoto Japan. I left my phone in a store. The cashier found me 20 minutes later to give it back to me. I was floored. She must of been running around all over to find me. I would of been screwed hard to loose my phone over there. Couldn’t thank her enough

That’s shitty, atleast it was a work phone

 

[Bigmurph6]

That’s a good person right there bless her

That’s fucked up brother,you can get that screen and digitizer fixed. I do it myself and paid 55$ for the parts on Amazon.

Yeah since it’s a work phone the IT department is replacing screen and whatever else, but if all fails will just get a replacement.

That is such a pain in the ass. Hopefully you had your info backed up to the cloud. In the event that I lose mine, I have it set to brick if too many attempts are made to break into it. Like @Bigmurph said, it’s stupid to steal a phone these days.

 

[Rusty]

Man that’s some bullshit bro!!! There is absolutely no point in stealing someone’s phone nowadays.

That’s basically what our IT department did. Amazingly, with the new screen it looks good as new. However, the camera and video features are messed up. Also during calls it breaks up quite a bit. Fortunately I’m due for an upgrade at work so they are getting me an iphone11 which should be here within a couple days.
