Evan's friend lost a $300 T-Mobile cell phone in a New York City cab. The people who found it, instead of doing the right thing and returning it, decided to keep and use it to take pictures of themselves and log onto AOL. Unknowingly to them, those pictures were automatically uploaded to the T-Mobile server, where they were accessed by the owner of the phone.
