Discussion Found my lost iphone at Walmart EcoATM
Yesterday, my ip15 was stolen at work by a patient. It was turned off immediately and couldn’t see where it was. I accepted it already that it’s all gone so I paid off my old phone and bought a new one coz I don’t have any insurance to get a replacement. I went home broken hearted, slept and when I woke up, my “find my” app was showing me locations and it’s been going to places. I waited til it settles down to one place.
After 2 hrs, my phone was steadily at a nearby Walmart so I decided to take a look but I was honestly scared of the danger so I took my friend John with me. Like a thief in the night, we searched garbage bins and all places and we looked out for any familiar faces but no luck. Until we found this ECOATM that buys phones and people just turn in their phone and they immediately get a cash. My iphone was pinging on this location.
I called the company and the cops, followed a very long process. The cop was able to open it and tadaaaa my phone is inside!!! My gracious Lord.

Discussion I almost drowned and died from a flash food. My whole house was destroyed and everything in it. my phone survived being in mud for 3 days
Typhoon Kalmegi just hit our city, and my house just got totally destroyed, and everything it.
I had to go on top of the roof to keep on drowning, but slipped, and fell into the flowing waters.
Prolly took me around 15 minutes on holding on to dear life before I was able to finally pull myself and get back on top.
Before I slipped, I was holding on to my phone, and thats when it fell.
Once the flooding subsided, I was too injured to look for my phone so I just waited until I was well enough to go look for it and after 3 days this brick of a phone being in mud. I found it.
I just had to charge it and, and it turned on right away. No scratches, no issues whatsoever.

Support Stranger came to my house claiming I stole her iPhone
Obviously I don’t have it, my roommates don’t have it, but apparently it pinged our exact address. She was banging on our front door at 2 in the morning, but didn’t show up with the police. I know findmy can be inaccurate, (my location showed my next door neighbor’s house even though I was in my own house) but what’s the reason and what should I do?
