i found a i-phone in manhattan. (at&t)
i decided to keep it but the owner isn't canceling the phone service
it doesnt have any sim card.
and if he does cancle it,
can i use the phone?
i saw in the internet that if it is recorded as lost or stolen,
you can go to jail for it. (which is pretty weird)
and i also heard that they can track you down. (for just an i phone?)
And the owner only called twice, i think. and that's it.
Weirdddd....
what should i do?
HELPPPPPPP

Help? You should be kind and return it. o_O

How did the owner call it if theres no sim card? o___o

[Face]

So, is there or is there not a SIM card? I thought for calls to work, you need a SIM card? I don't know much about it, but....

If the owner has tried contacting you TWICE, I would personally return it.

But then, it's your decision. =/

Your story makes no sense. How the heck could the owner of the phone call you when there's no SIM card in it? Just tell me how? O.O

Also, if the owner reports it stolen, then the carrier can track it down by IMEI number. Meaning, they could put down or blacklist the IMEI number and if they find out someone is using it, basically you calling in to activate it, then they can find out who you are if you already gave them your personal information. The carriers know which phone you're using by looking at the IMEI numbers. Even T-mobile can tell which of their customers are using the iPhone, but they aren't going to do anything because they aren't loosing money.

Just return the phone back to the owner. Don't tell me that the iPhone is a MUST HAVE device and your a Apple brainwashed zombie, and willing to keep the phone.

What the heck is your malfunction?! You want us, the good people of Soompi to help you steal someone else's property? Nice first post...newsflash thief! You can't receive calls on a phone with NO SIM CARD. Sorry, i'd rather not be an accessory to theft.

[MUGETSU]

Sell it to me.

I'll buy it from you...for $25 meet up in Manhattan. Let me know.

I'll take the burden off of your shoulders. lol

[forgottenmemories]

How bout returning it? How would you feel if you lost a $600 phone and someone found it and doens't wanna return it to you?

Btw, I agree with everyone. Your story makes no sense. There's no SIM card in the phone yet the owner can call you?

You should answer it, and let them know you have it and would like to return. They'll probably give you a "reward" for being so honest.

My phone got stolen at work. I called it many times (more than 50) and my coworker answered it and denied that she has my phone (how dumb because it's my phone number -__-). I report it at work. Eventually, Lost Prevention unit tracked the coworker and she got fired. However i didn't get my phone back because my company couldn't find her at her home.

I think you should return it. Morally, it's wrong to keep it.

[AsobiSeksu]

haha

[rms13]

I my self would try to unlock it, but really you should return it. I know I sure as hell felt bad when I lost my phone and a frick'n bum picked it up. He asked for an award so I gave him $20. Lucky bastard, I didn't set the security on the phone.

[KTHubbybunch]

To DK: maybe I-phone has an OFFLINE mode like nokia6680? o__o;; *shrugz*

[iamsars]

does alltel need sim cards or is it like verizon?

I don't know about that, but still. I wouldn't say if it does or doesn't since the person's story isn't straight.

Like Verizon.

[chifuni]

You should return it. Don't be selfish :[

[hpnotiq]

I think it's stupid how you ask for people's opinions.
Isn't it obvious that everyone's going to say "Return it to the owner"?
