Found an iphone, can I be tracked/punished for trying to keep it?
I recently found an iphone 5c, I know I should try return it but lifes a ***** and I know if I lost my phone I wouldn't get it back.
I removed the sim card and turned it on and the little gps arrow is on in the top corner, does this mean they are tracking me? And if so can I stop it?
Yes you can so hand it into the police.
Whoever had the phone has a tracker on it. And when they lost the phone, they probably reported it stolen with their cell company. When you do this, the number of the phone itself (not phone number) goes into a special database.
So yes. It is tracked.
Yes, find my iphone will identify its location.
Turn it in. You will feel good about it, you may get a reward, plus all the guilt you are obviously feeling will go away. Still, the reward would feel good to if it's offered!
Yes it can be tracked with the gps.
- I found an iPhone 4s, can I keep it? The poor thing was totally trashed. The screen completely cracked and the SIM card had sharpie all over it. I found this while on a trip in Miami, now that I'm back in Cali, I want to know if it's safe to use? I replaced the screen and changed the SIM. It was orginally registered with AT&T but they already cut the service.
- I found an iphone 4s can i keep it? I found the phone a couple months ago and could not get in touch with the owner. The Iphone is also locked. Can I keep it for my own use? I want to keep it but without service and use it as an ipod touch. What can I do? Please don't tell what is ethical and that I should continue to try to find the owner. I have tried but could not contact the owner! 10 points to best answer!

- I found a found and nobody called. ITs been a month. What should i do? I found a iphone 5 and i factory reseted it after nobody called for about a month. A message from the owner showed up after reseting it and I called that number and texted it repeatedly but no answer. So i'm thinking of giving it to my sister since her phone broke but its locked from icloud. What can i do? I have the phones MEID & IMEI number. - What are my options? Its a waste to just throw it away.
