'He stole from the wrong dude': Guy retaliates against a phone thief by signing him (and his friends) up for every spam site he could find

It's 2023, who still steals phones? Back in the era when every iPhone 3 could be resold on the black market for an up-charge and even the OG flip-phone Razr's were valuable, it was a lucrative business, but now there are so many security measures to protect phone owners, it's a wonder that thieves are still motivated to sneak their hands into their fellow citizens's pockets. Perhaps the value is what we can find on the phones if they're jail broken, but the pincher is that all of these devices are earmarked by security and easily traced. An old school phone thief seemed to forget that detail and watched his quick cash grab turn totally toxic, learning quickly that he stole from the wrong guy. 

Here at Failblog, we love to see the villainous thieves of the world get what they deserve, and in this thief's case, he got a lifetime of spam emails/SMS texts from every scam group out there.
