"Oh, I didn't forget to buy the dishes, doggie the IPad!" "On the evening of March 24, Mr. Lu, a citizen of Chengdu, took a three-wheeled home, got off to pay the iPad and left it in the back seat, until after dinner." With a cold pull out cool mood, Mr. Lu thought of using positioning software search. 12 hours later, he really recovered the iPad ...

IPad lost owner start positioning

"When I found out that the IPad was on a three-wheeled fire, it had been one hours before it got off the bus," Mr. Lu said, as he took a fire tricycle near the South railway station, took 2 kilometers, and dropped the dish and iPad on his seat when he was paid. As a result, only remember to bring vegetables. He then returned to the South railway station to find the fruit.

Back home for half an hour frustrated, suddenly remembered Apple product positioning function. Mr. Lu is a "fruit powder", the same account used for cell phones, tablets and computers. He remembered the "Find My iphone" software on his phone, can locate the same account of Apple products, so immediately into the software, click the "Lost Mode" option, to their iPad sent a message: "This is the Chengdu Wuhou District police, the tablet has been positioned and permanently locked, The public security organs will be detained for 90 days for refusing to return the lost property by civil punishment! (or directly with the owner, this flat has important business information, the owner of the phone 185xxxxxxxx, the owner of the founder is willing to be Xie) ".

Mr. LU said the reason for impersonating a policeman was to make the information look serious, prompting the person holding his iPad to contact him voluntarily. However, the system detected that the IPAD was not networked in the evening and could not send this message. But once the ipad is connected to the network, it will immediately react to its location, locking the ipad and displaying the message on the screen.

12 hours later, the master returned voluntarily.

After the message was sent, Mr Lu only hoped that the IPad would be connected to the Internet for a moment. On the morning of 25th, 9, Mr. Lu received a message: "Your IPad Mini has been found and address is somewhere on the Starlight Road." Then he got a call from the person who picked up the ipad and said he picked up the ipad on a tricycle yesterday, and now he is somewhere in the Starlight Road, and ask Mr. Lu to come and get it. Mr. Lu immediately arrived at the agreed place and paid 200 yuan to collect the lost property.

Mr. Lu analyzed that the person who picked up the iPad was a big factor in the initiative, because it was a more serious text message. If the other party refused to return, Mr. Lu also has plans. "After the networking, the IPad positioning information is displayed." Mr. LU said that he could get to the location information, select the "Send Sound" option, the IPad will be issued a continuous sound effect, even if the shutdown will always respond. However, Mr Lu feels that this method is difficult to achieve.

Lawyer says

The wrong way should be reported in time

Is it feasible to use the name of a police officer to send text messages?

Zeng Wenzhong, a lawyer at Chengdu surplus law firm, said the law was not desirable and that citizens should seek help from the police in time if they lost their belongings. The No. 279 section of the Penal Code states that pretending to be a policeman or an imposter is imprisonment for 3 years, criminal detention, control or deprivation of political rights. He said that although the law is such a rule, but Mr Lu's case is a "special" situation.

Although the way is wrong, but the pursuit of the purpose is legitimate, "he did not bring harm to society, nor to the public security organs caused negative impact." At the same time, he also advised the public, if there is a loss of valuables, it is best not to use this method, should be timely alarm for help.
