Laptop Takes World Tour, Calls Home Often
A laptop reported stolen from a student in New Jersey in October 2005, called in to Absolute´s Monitoring Center five days later from Hong Kong. Shortly thereafter, the laptop began calling in from England, then Dubai, then England again, and next from a hotel in Florida. When the laptop popped up in Massachusetts the next day, state police apprehended an astonished Hong Kong businessman who had bought the computer through an online auction service. A detective who helped crack the case sums it up: "I don't think I'd ever want you guys chasing me."
