Stollen Cellphone and A Blogger’s Attempt to Get It Back

If you haven’t already heard about this, there’s a blogger out there that forgot his cell phone in a taxis. While I’ve never ridden in many taxis in my life he says that finding forgotten cell phones is a regular occurrence, in which he contacts the owner and tries to return them. In his situation however, which is very similar to when my Nokia 8290 was taken at 24 Hour Fitness, the person decided to take it and keep it for their own instead of being nice. In most cases, the only thing you can do is have the phone disabled and reported stolen so the phone because useless (which shows exactly how stupid it is to steal in the first place since the phone is rendered useless so easily). However, in this case the store gets more interesting as the thief decided to take some pictures and also log into AOL using the phone. Anyways the story is quite long and it would be best to read his blog entry. While I know that this is already all over the blogosphere, I just wanted to add to humiliation of the thieves…
