“About 2 weeks ago I went out on my mates stag do and decided to come home early.”
Lightweight.
“I caught the last train home. While sitting there I noticed this phone on the opposite chair. I asked the 2 ladys and the old feller if they had lost the phone but no one owned up. No conductor came around so I brought it home with me.”
Now, I’m assuming he’s talking about the phone there and not ‘the old feller’.
“I thought about taking it to the police station”
As you would.
Or maybe that’s just me.
“but I found this phone 20 plus miles from my local station so I know there was no possible chance on any one claiming it back.”
Looks like it is just me.
Got to see his point though, it’s not like police stations share their information with each other is it?
And there’s certainly no chance of anyone claiming it back if you don’t even report it to them.
“If you believe this could be your phone then please contact me so I can return it to you.”
Spread the word.
Pass it on, like it on Facebook, retweet it on Twitter, do whatever boring management thing you do on Linkedin, just spread the word and see if anyone who may have been on a train approximately 2 weeks ago, near Pentre, Rhondda Cynon Taff, South Wales may recognize it.
“If the silicone case can be identified correctly (colour/design pattern/make) the location (between what south Wales train stations) you lost and if you can tell me the photo on the screen saver (car make model colour/ children/partner/celebrity male or female?? Pets/cat/or dog/hamster/snake ect what breed or colour. And what sticker was stuck to the back!!! (only myself and owner knows)”
Better be quick though.
“Ok so now I’m going to sell this as spares or repairs.”
Obviously, if you’ve lost your phone, the first thing you should do isn’t to contact the police or any places where you think you may have lost it, but instead to go straight to ebay to see if anyone’s advertising there that they’ve found it (before they sell it).
“And donate the money.”
Oh well that’s ok then, isn’t it?
“On the screen it’s saying iPhone locked please connect to iTunes.
I’m sure it’s a easy job. (for someone with computer knowledge)”
Or criminal knowledge.
“No charger but phone will arrive with 100% battery. Chargers can be bought on eBay for less than a tenner”
Possibly sold by people who lost their phone and have no need of the charger any more?
“I’m a honest person and if I could access the phone book I would of rung owner to arrange to give it back.”
I’m assuming the owner never tried ringing their lost phone or, at least, the seller never answered it
“Spares or repair. You can have the case it come in to if you like.”
I might be interested in the case but can you describe it?
I mean, what colour/design pattern/make is it for starters?
Worth a try, I suppose.
“All the best and good day to you.”
Still, at least he’s polite.
Maybe he’s Raffles, the gentleman thief?
