Buying stolen goods isn't cool.

(I don't think it should be a crime but it is immoral).

He doesn't have anyone to blame but himself.

How do you know it's stolen? I've bought used stuff from ebay and other similar sites, I have no way of knowing if it's stolen or not.

I've bought used laptops twice... it's really hard to know if they're stolen or not. I usually ask for receits though, but not everyone keeps all receits. Of course, I try to check if the seller "seems legit", whatever that means.

I guess I deserve someone uploading all my private photos to some site to make fun of me, my life and my personal hygiene...

>back in germany, a few days after christmas, 4 month after the ibiza trip, i turned on my computer and noticed fifteen new pictures inside my dropbox camera upload folder.

I think you're right. 4 months is more than enough time for a smartphone to be bought and used by a new person.

"when i ran back to the deck chair to get rid of my underpants, i noticed someone lying stiffly under the chair. not moving, not reacting."

Kind of creepy, but still - she didn't actually see his face. Could be someone completely different, like you say.
