Thief Steals Young Girl’s Phone, So Her Big Brother Tricks Him Into Taking It To The Police

Who doesn't love a good story about a thief getting exactly what he deserves?

Imgur user  posted one such story online and it has been going absolutely viral. While there is no way to confirm if it is 100% true or not, we like to think that it is (and it's still a great story all the same)!

After working so hard all summer long to purchase her very own iPhone, a high school senior realized that it had been stolen.

Because it was brand new, she hadn't yet activated the Find My iPhone app. Eventually, she just thought the thief had made out with it, and after all the hours she had put into paying for it.

Then, her brother got a fishy text from a random number.

The brother figured out that this person was rummaging through the phone's contacts and documents, trying to find the device's password.

He wasn't about to let this one slide without a fight, so he put on his prankster hat.

What transpired between this hero of an older brother and the person in possession of his sister's stolen phone teeters on the edge of a miracle.
