Is finding a iphone 4 stealing?

My friend had found this iphone 4 three years ago and he said he had found it in a bathroom, he gave it to me to restore it. Is this stealing? (Legally Aquiring)

No, its not.

Yes, it's stealing if you don't hand it to the authority

Who cares?

Found it in a bathroom next to someone not looking- yes
found it in a bathroom in someone's bag- yes
found it in a bathroom in someone's hand and snatched it- yes

i'm kidding. If he found it and no one was there at all, then its the persons fault for leaving it
finders keepers, losers weepers

No, it might not be technically *stealing*, but I think you know it's not morally right.

Just remember, karma's a b*tch.

Edit: Accidentally omitted the first "not".

Technically it is called theft by finding if you do not try to find its owner or hand it in to the police

  • Will I go to jail for stealing an iPhone 4? I was stupid and held an iPhone for a friend. I didn't ask why or nothing just did it. Next day I have the cops going threw my stuff. The phone was stolen. I got in trouble because it was in my house. I have to go to court for it next month.Am I going to jail? I just turned 18. The phone is only worth $300 at max. I have never gotten in Trouble like this before. Just a speeding ticket. I live in Vermont btw. I just want to know if I'm going to jail.
