Revenge of the Stolen Sidekick (cellphone)

This is hilarious. The guy's friend left her cellphone in a taxi and someone else picked it up, refused to return it and then started using it.

This guy has been making updates to the site as the story unfolds.

Enjoy.

DoH!  I searched back a couple of days and didn't see anything.

See and respond to the thread:

Best thing about this, the MP will likely get busted back to a Pvt and be doing security at a JC Penny. I love the UCMJ

Seems like the cell phone company would deactivate the phone from further use upon notification by the legitimate account holder.  Or they can triangulate the position as to where the phone is if it's left on.  To re-activate, don't the cell phone companies get any information stored on the phone, such as serial numbers and so on and so forth?  Where's the bill of sale if questions arise?  Seems like a phone call to the original owner from the cell phone company would clear things up if that was in question.

Why all the fuss and internet drama?  Losing or having a cell phone stolen is serious business.  The cell phone owner shouldn't have to deal with it past making a single phone call.;)

Who said they had to? It's just more fun to mess up people's lives that are being arses about petty things like this. I'm guessing they just decided to tell the phone company not to shut it down so they could play with them; I would. :D
