Hey, Is That A Phone You're Holden?

from the give-me-back-my-car.... dept

Derek writes "...or are you just happy to see me. That's "Holden", as in the GM car brand in Australia. A woman there noticed her car stolen, and sent text messages to her son's phone, which was in the car. The grand thief replied, and soon found himself not on a road trip, but a guilt-trip instead. The thief eventually returned the car and 'Texted' an apology. Of course, he still stole the cell phone and the car's contents. "
