Title: Found Cell Phone in Cowiche!
Post by: robplatt on November 03, 2014, 03:47:49 PM: Just got back from Elk hunting in Cowiche. Stumbled across a lost cell phone that was badly damaged, however the sdcard was intact.

Attached is a photo of the guy, if anyone recognizes him, please help me get in contact with him, thank you!

Kudos to you for trying to locate the phone owner :tup:

Called one of the contacts in the phone, told them I'd found the phone and had the contact give the guy my number if he wanted it back. He sent a Starbucks card once he got it. Had to give the wife my reward since I don't drink coffee, but that was fine since I didn't do it for the reward.

The phone was destroyed. If no one recognizes him I'l call up AT&T and give them the sim card number and see if there is a history of who it was registered to. I doubt they'll give me his number, but maybe they'll call him on my behalf.

I tried putting his sim card in my phone (to see what # it said it was registered to) but they weren't the same size.
