How I recovered my stolen itel phone.....

This write up is to sound a sterling warning to serial phone thieves and people who are accustomed to buying stolen phones.

I bought my Itel 1516 android phone, just 27000, after three month of use, one early Saturday morning i went to popular wine bar shopping plaza at Atekong junction Calabar to catch up with Saturday morning bet. As I was busy handing out my coupon code to bet attendant in that crowded shop that was how my phone disappeared before my eyes.......

I raised alarm, called the attention of the cashiers, and that of the teaming guys hustling to get breakthrough but to no avail.

we immediately called my phone number but no response. One of my friend Mr frank Udama advice me to report to state housing police station which happened to be the nearest police station to book my case incase the phone is used to commit crime afterwards.

I was truly frustrated because of the important document there in, memorable photos, free access to my social media, and my ATM pin, all my passwords are much exposed. i wasn't the type that locks phone.

After two days, that was Monday, the guy who stole my phone have started updating my socials, reply my messages. I quickly visited GLO office at Marian road calabar but the company seems not to have any plans with respect to tracking numbers rather I was advice to go to police which was the option I never liked. I don't like the bottle neck with Nigeria police

One week gone, i was sharing drink with my good friend in a bar, Mr felix Obasi who told me that his neighbor stolen iPhone was recovered. wow!!! he give me his neighbor's contact who also linked me to Mr Bassey Ogah the head of a small unit in the governor s office specialized in tracking stolen phones.

Fast forward, I met Mr Bassy Odey, I paid then sum of 90,000 being the cost of tracking and arresting of the person who stole my 27000 itel phone. I was foolish to my neighbors, friends for spending such amount to track cheap itel phone especially to my good neighbor Mr Roland Odey who was unaway of my reasons considered my action stupid.
However, my reasons for tracking are the following.
*to recover my photos to keep memories
*to protect my passwords
*to recover personal work documents
*to be sure that the phone tracking thing works in naija
* to behold the face of the guy who put me through stress.

furthermore, after somedays Mr Bassey called to show me the exact location of the phone, the sim cards that are in use as well. Immediately his team went out to arrest the dude who was using my phone.

surprisedly, my phone was stolen by one of the cashiers in the betting shop mr William who was close to me, he often call me big uncle. He was arrested and brought to the office with my phone. All information in my phone wiped out, couldn't believe my eyes.

I was advised by Mr Bassy to contact police to arrest him, I resort to peace. My request were to collet my phone which was still in good condition, and to get my 90k from Mr William. His family were contacted, my 90k and phone given to me, case closed in police station.

I was glad that my curiosity paid off. I'm grateful to all who provided me with the information.

Note. before my phone was tracked, I was asked to provide proof of ownership. eg receipt or phone pack.

You're just troubling yourself over nothing. Anyone who wants to believe should believe and anyone
who is not ready to believe you shouldn't. You don't need to bang your head against hard rock so that someone or some people can believe you.
And later, they're still the same set of people who will be telling us how Dangote, Otedola, Bill Gate and Warren Buffet are using Nokia 3310.

The story get k leg... Have you been around lai mohamed any time in the recent past?


But on a serious note. Bro it's not wise putting these people's full names and surname out in the open... It's a strange world out there...
