Is it ok to use a iPhone you found on the ground?

I found a iPhone 4 on the ground at the beach. I reset the whole phone to the way you would find it if it was new. It was from Verizon wireless and I had the same phone company to. I wanted to know if its ok to connect it to my plan. Would they ask me to return it or give it to a store or something? Could I get in trouble? Do I have to wait a certain amount of time to connect it?

The struggle is real

In order to be 100% sure call verizon customer service and double check.

Try to return the phone instead of gaining from it. Its not yours & yes they could detect it was lost/stolen.

  • My iphone 5 was frozen to the ground? I fell and I didn't realize my phone fell out of my pocket until we got home, so we went back and it was frozen to the ground. It wasn't really wet but there were like 2 medium sized drops of water on the screen. Would it be okay to turn it on?

  • I've dropped my iphone 5c on the ground and the screen is mostly black? I dropped my iphone on the ground and I can't see most of the screen. I still get notifications. It's still able to charge. The part I can touch is still working but I still can't use my phone because the part that's lit up is so little. Can I just get a screen replacement? When I turn it on it looks like there's a big crack but when it's off it's gone. Your help is appreciated.
  • I found an iPhone on the ground it's a 6s I checked and the sim card is removed and I believe the IMEI was removed too, I think it's a stolen iPhone. What do I do? Can it still be tracked?
