This morning I received from Niger “ hi you lost your phone redmi note 7 and i found it i'm in niger “. I was surprised when I saw the message. Though I couldn’t remember the precise date they stole this Redmi Xiaomi in my room at night, when I woke up I couldn’t find my phone again, I try to call it but it was switched off. Then I realized my phone has been stolen.

I went to Ikorodu police station to report the case, the outrageous amount they charged, made me decision to leave the phone. Instead of paying 40k to track the phone which I have no grantee of getting back.

I went back home very sad. As I was thinking about the stolen phone, my friend came to check me, then I collected his phone and log in to my mi account. I locked everything lockable from the mi account.

Since the year 2020 I didn’t hear anything until this morning, apparently I have even forget the phone cus I got a big phone after waiting 5 months. I was so surprised when the guy chat me and also send me the phone picture. The reason why I post this is that if you’re using Redmi xiaomi phone always make sure you activate the mi account. D thing secured die, they flashed it and the phone is still locked.

Now the Niger guy is begging me to give him the code? Should I give him or tell him to return to the seller?

Same thing I did to mine that was robbed at a gun point Dec 2020.

Pointing gun at me, I willingly gave the arm robber and they zoomed off in their car. They robbed so many persons that day, just before Christmas day.

Till date, the phone is still locked. I even composed a message that the phone was stolen and included a number to reach if it lands in anyone hands. Any time the phone is switched on, that message will display on the screen.

They can't unlock it. Cuz I locked it through redmi iCloud.

In fact, that phone is useless without me unlocking it.

Don’t think you are being a ‘good guy’ by giving him the unlock code, you will be encouraging robbery. It is either he sends the phone to you or return it to where he bought it. People steal phones because there’s an easy market for them and we must do all we can to discourage such.

A lot of people have lost their lives because robbers wanted their phones. Doesn’t matter if you’ve moved on or not; please don’t give out that code!

NnamdiN:
what then is the essence of the security if I have to give out the code to whoever steals it?
There's nothing like helping here, his phone was stolen and the security he put on it has made it useless. That was the whole point of putting it.
Like if it was a car and the thief couldn't drive it, he should send the code because he's gotten another car?

The Nigerien guy should return the phone to whoever sold it to him and ask for a refund or return it to the original owner. These kind things no suppose carry sentiments come.

It's up to the op to decide, me no go do am and thats my point.

Olabodmit:

It seems like you are also from Niger.
There is nothing your redpill can do cus the ball is My hand �

aloma007:


The guy requesting the code was not the one that stole the phone.

He was only guilty of buying a stolen product that could have landed him in jail.

These are the screenshot of conversation with the Niger guy

Thought everything can be bypassed on Android..

harjay1986:


bro you get it wrong there still some phone with high security firewall, that will make it near impossible to bypass the lock screen and by lock you might unlock it but some of it function will be locked

Ademoore07:
Yes. Phones such as huawei, oppo, xiaomi, apple (iphone) and oneplus has a powerful cloud. That was why they difficult to hack.

investigator007:
how about TECNO phones, are they easy to hack?

Ademoore07:
In matter of seconds, i will wipe it off. That was one of the reasons why they call it trash.

heed101:
Please does Infinix has this kind of security?

Lamanii22:



Chaiii.... Off mic don't downgrade my phone please

22o62021:
Op let me explain something to you

The phone can still be used even if you don’t send the code

What he need is to bypass the mi account

The people that sold it to him bypassed the mi account and he went home and reseted the phone

It went back to the real owners account

I bypass iCloud on iPhones but if you flash it again, the real account will show up again but you can still re bypass it

It’s just money


Make una no de happy say MI account strong like that

Oppo own na him hard pass

Ishilove:
Can we do this to Tecno phones?

Olabodmit:


Yes I’m going to give the guy. Just post it here so that people can learn lessons. I had totally moved on and forget about the phone

lanre316:


We are talking about phones, real phones, not craps like itel, techno or infinix.
