What’s the most remarkable thing your sibling has done for you lately? We’re guessing it’s not nearly as legendary as the act of this brother who took revenge on a thief that stole his sister’s phone.
A user named “moonlitowl” shared a series of text exchanges between themselves and the person who either found or pilfered their sister’s phone.
They wrote, “My younger sister, a soon-to-be senior, saved up all summer to purchase an iPhone, only to have it stolen—or perhaps it just slipped out of her boyfriend’s car—a week ago. She hadn’t activated the ‘Find My iPhone’ feature, so we reported it stolen, but we were pretty sure someone was just enjoying a free iPhone courtesy of her hard-earned cash. To make matters worse, she also lost her wallet case, which contained all her IDs and cards.”
Losing a phone, or having it taken, is incredibly stressful, especially for a high school student who worked so hard for it. So, what did this sibling do? They decided to take matters into their own hands.
“One day, I received a text from an unfamiliar number. I quickly called my sister to ensure it wasn’t her, only to realize that someone was rummaging through her contacts to fish for her password. I knew immediately that this wasn’t my sister,” they explained.
Feeling mischievous, they thought, “Why not have a little fun? We likely won’t get the phone back, but I might as well entertain myself.”
And entertain they did!
This clever sibling proceeded to lead the phone thief on an elaborate charade involving mobsters and a suitcase full of cash, all while a volatile ‘Boss’ character loomed in the background. To their delight, the plot was successful!
The sibling noted that the thief’s persistent requests for the password meant a longer engagement, yet it didn’t take long for the fabricated mob story to send the thief into a panic. “They were practically ready to bolt at this point—who wants to end up like Vince?”
Eventually, the password seeker cracked under pressure. “My sister received an email this morning. I have peaked,” they wrote, clearly thrilled.
Looks like the thief was a bit spooked!
The takeaway?
Besides being cautious about where you leave your phone, don’t underestimate the lengths a devoted sibling will go to for family. They will hunt you down.
