iPhone Stolen, sort of...

To anyone who thinks this is not important enough for the police, I have watched stings on COPS (the FOX network) where the authorities staged thefts.

It upset me actually that they would set up goods in low income/high crime areas, knowing very well that some people in those areas would go after the valuables. But post 9/11 and given the recent UK threats, true I doubt that operation iPhone would be a high priority, but I would not underestimate it.

Me? I've lost 2 iPods, and so what? I called the cops only when I was given counterfeit money for an item. Because it was via the Internet (Craigslist), the police took a greater interest suspecting it may be a ring.

Sorry to hear about that. I hope you didn't wait overnight to get one of the fist phones. I am assuming that since you canceled the service you have no way in contacting him. Is this correct? Does your homeowner insurance cover this?

BTW, if all of us donated a dollar we might be able to raise a fund for a new iPhone. Just a thought.

Good luck.

It's funny you mentioned that, I had considered doing that for him. He is truly devastated, as you can all relate!

He contacted a different Officer who has taken it a little more seriously than his first conversation. The Officer has attempted to contact a couple of the numbers that were called from the phone after the theft. He is also looking into security camera footage from a business across the street that points into the Wendy's parking lot. He thinks it fell out of his Speck holder outside.

He has been reading this thread and appreciates everyones responses and sympathy. I'm trying to get him to post.
