phone found this morning, if yours email me at [email protected] and I can put you in touch with OP.
A reader found an iPhone this morning and there was a disturbing warning/response:
“Be careful. I did this once and then had my front door kicked in with men raiding my home looking for the iPhone.
This was in 2017. I found it outside a bar at closing time it was like 3am, me and my roommates took the phone with us that night and somehow we were texting with a friend of the owner. No texts the following day and then around 10pm our front door was kicked in and the phone was taken. I think it was just the phone and my roommates Xanax that they took but it was scary nonetheless.
They went through every room looking for it.
I was just a naive college kid! I wish more people knew about this just because “find my device” is so accessible if someone wants their phone back, typically they can find a way back to it– hopefully no one would steal it but it’s just not like losing your car keys.
Honestly just put the phone back or hand it over to cops I guess? They can track the phone if they want it. I know that’s a hard thing to do but I was even texting the supposed owner before it happened.”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
