Today, someone stole my iPhone. I used the Find My iPhone app, and located it in the apartment building next to mine. I can hear the ringing sound I've activated, but nobody will answer the door. FML

Today, my new iPhone was stolen from my school locker. After canceling my service, sobbing, having my mom yell at the secretary for their lack of security and finally agreeing to change to a private school, I found it in the corner of my locker. FML

Today, my brand new iPhone 4 was stolen from my bag. I asked the bartender if anyone had handed it in. I soon found out that while I was talking to her, someone swiped my wallet from the bag too. FML

Today, I had misplaced my cell phone. I decided the best course of action would be to dial the number from my house phone and wait for it to ring to locate it. Somebody answered when I called. It wasn't the wrong number and I had a brief conversation with the man that stole my phone. FML

Late stage capitalism

Today, being poor and starving, I stole a chick’s iPhone while she wasn’t looking. Turns out, she has a feature on her Apple Watch that can track the iPhone and make it go off, even if it’s on silent mode. I had to pretend I just found it and was looking for the owner so I didn’t look like a thief. FML

Today, I fell going down the stairs to the subway platform during rush hour. Someone was kind enough to help me up and someone else was kind enough to steal my iPhone which had fallen out of my pocket and landed nearby. FML

Today, I left my phone at work. After returning to the office to retrieve it, I noticed it was not on my desk as it usually is. I went to the front office and found it on the desk, unattended. When turning on my phone, I was greeted by my new lockscreen: a crap someone took in the bathroom. FML

Today, I locked myself out of my apartment. But it’s 2024, so I have a smart lock I can unlock through an app on my phone. Except I also left my phone inside. The worst part? I had to ask my neighbor to call my mom so she could unlock my apartment from her phone. FML

Today, after looking for my phone for three weeks, I used find my iPhone to track it to my sister-in-law's house. Her response? "Finders keepers, losers weepers." FML

That's because they are on the other side loading the shotgun. Be smart, call the police.

A little door shouldn't stop you. Put your hip to the door an repeat "One, two, better not sue!" and smash it open with your hip

When You hear them on the other side of the door asking "what's the pass code/ magic word" don't tell them.

Better yet, break in, kick their ass for having the audacity to steal something you used your hard earned money for, then call the cops.

And when said law enforcement official asks OP how he got the phone back, how do you expect him to answer?

That sucks. You should text it your address and say "I know where you live." And creep them out

That's when you use your manliest voice and quote Liam Neeson from Taken.

You understimate the intelligence of iPhone thieves. Criminals who have the good taste to steal awesome technology are not the same knuckleheads who steal cheap car stereos. Evidently, you are not quite as bright as the thief, but don't dispair, Apple has assembled a group of Geniuses to help you.

Slide a note underneath the door saying something like "you have 1 hour to hand back what you've stolen, if I don't receive the item... Blood will be spilled".
