TLC says you're only obligated to return the phone to the Base or the Police Dept. Period.

If you choose to do more, is she paying you? Ask her to go online and create a prepaid shipping label at FedEx.com and she can email you the label. You'll drop off the phone to FedEx and ship it.

The box for sending this is like $4.00.

Wait, did you just say "demand" ? LOL.... I'd ... well, nevermind.... you don't wanna know what I'd do!

Well, he doesn't know the password. Neither do you. And she might have that software that takes a picture of you when you enter an incorrect password.

Or you can just dismantle it and sell it for parts on eBay? A galaxy s8 screen alone is $273.00

Explain "demanding". Do you mean like "return it or else!"? If that's the case, just throw it out the window and forget about it.

If you mean just asking for it back, tell you to PayPal you the shipping cost so you can ship it to her. Or leave it at the nearest police department to you and tell her to pick it up from there.

Which is such a stupid low number. You are driving from wherever you are and back, wasting gas and etc, for only 15 bucks. Lol.

Police or base office. Dont ship!! She could say she never got it. Even if you take it to her she can say you never did. There must be middle man unfortunately these days

Drop it at your nearest police precinct and get a receipt. Don't do anything less and don't do anything more.

This isn't a "used phone" .. this is a "stolen phone" if he sells it to you.

Don't leave it in your closet or it's considered theft. Either fling it out the window or ship it back (after she pays shipping of course)

There is something called a tracking number.
Even then if she never got it, it's not your problem and you aren't liable for her phone.

Why is it difficult to just drop it off at the police dept ? You don't have to go to 1 Penn Plaza.... just go to the one around the corner from your house! She'll have to take a trip there to pick it up.

And yet, how much does a driver get for a minimum x fare? Lots of people doing things for stupid low numbers.
