Today, I lost my phone. I called the number from my friend's phone, hoping I could find it. A guy answered, laughed "Thanks for the phone!" and hung up. 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
Today, I was at my friend's house celebrating his 16th birthday. I couldn't find my phone so I asked my friend's girlfriend if I could borrow her phone to see if I could hear mine ringing. I dialed my number, only to find she had my number saved in her phone as "ASS FACE #3". FML

Track your number, since this guy is obviously too dumb to turn the thing off.

Just shut off the phone. Then, he can't use it.

Phones now have something called IMEI, if OP reports the IMEI of the phone as Lost/Stolen, no network will work with it. So yes you have the phone, but whatever SIM you try to use won't work. If you have an iPhone and there's no security lock... the person who stole it can turn off Location Services, you won't be able to track it :/

At this point, you could either A) GPS track it, B) Call your network provider to block the phone, making it completely useless, or C) Call the police. Don't let that asshole get away with that shit.

That sucks OP. Maybe it's for good, you never know. Karma will repay you :]

If you can't track it, please report the theft to your carrier so the phone is useless

A similar thing happened to me. I told the guy who basically stole my phone that I would pay him 50$ for the phone back...he said 100$. So I said sure 100$ is fine. I went to meet him and asked to see the phone to make sure it was mine. Then I snatch the phone out of his hand and said FU! And left with my friends...maybe you can still do this.
