A British traveler who had her mobile phone stolen while on holiday in Ibiza has had the last laugh after receiving photos of the thief and posting them online.
The unnamed woman started a blog called "Life of a stranger who stole my phone" when, unbeknownst to the thief, photos he was taking on the stolen phone were automatically syncing to her computer.
The woman was able to confirm the man in the photos was in fact the thief after he used the handset to enter her Facebook account and contact her from his own profile, revealing his name.

The woman's blog, which has gone viral since it began over a month ago, describes itself as "the inspiring story of Hafid from Dubai, the douchebag who stole my phone."
"He forgot to switch off the camera upload function, that's why we will enjoy a deep insight into his life," the woman wrote.
According to posts on the blog, the phone was snatched when the woman and her friends stripped off their clothes and went swimming one evening in Ibiza.
"We found ourselves hopelessly drunk and naked in the sea. We put our stuff on a deck chair 10m away"
"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."

The woman reportedly assumed the man under the chair was her friend, so ran back to the water to swim.
When the group emerged from the water, everything had been stolen.
"We tumbled out of the water quite irritated. Everything was gone. Money, purses, smartphones, passports, birthday presents and clothes," she wrote.
Pictures of Hafid posted on the woman's blog depict him in Dubai, at the beach and outside a mosque with friends.
marhaba my beloved habibis,
let’s get back to business. creative hafid had a once-in a-lifetime-business-idea. he is planning on opening an online shop where you can buy his designer clothes from the internet. so stay tuned and prepare your wallets, the grand opening will be soon. but first hafid has to work night shifts to get everything done in time. we just keep our fingers crossed!
salalalam party people despite all the excitement it’s time for everybody to calm down and focus on what’s most important in life. for hafid it is dancing. dancing makes the world around him disappear and forget about the times he didn’t even have a smartphone. in these moments you want to share your happiness with the whole world. seems like all your wishes come true today.
marhaba everybody!
as we know by now hafid and his friends enjoy the belongings of other people. but unfortunately not every adorable item is guarded by only one little drunk girl. but as long as you take pictures of yourself in front of it, naturally posing with a thumbs up, nobody will ever consider it’s not yours.
say salam to hipster-h∆fid!
fashion designer, part-time model and foodie? clear evidence hafid is a real hipster. if i’d just known earlier about his passion for food photography i wouldn’t have deleted the instagram app from my smartphone. just look how amazing it would’ve looked like.
whatup beaches!
this is gharam. gharam is the arabic word for love. he dreams of being one of the swan lake ballet dancers one day. but sadly his left foot is too big. but hey, we will never give up on love, right?
celebrate good crimes, come on!
okay habibis, it’s selfie time!
which one works for you? crazy, sexy or cool?
thumbs up, habibi. thumbs up.
salam internet!
i’m sure you know that after a certain amount of time it becomes necessary to expand your business. that’s why hafid starts to steal tiny people from the beach. he cuddles and feeds them until it’s time to set them free to the dunes, stealing their own smartphone one day.
just kidding. it’s not really a tiny person.
marhaba everybody!
if this isn’t a real fashion designer at work. it’s obvious that ali’s passion for fashion is deep seated. this is an exclusive look behind the scenes, where the magic happens. the carefully selected interior decoration matches ali’s exclusive taste and provides a permanent pool of inspiration for his designs. that’s why it’s very important that absolutely nothing is removed. ever.
profound and emotional down-to-earth-hafid.
let’s check out some bitches.
in december 2012 some of my friends called me, asking why some arabian guy tries to hit on them via my skype account. i thought this was some kind of misunderstanding but luckily my friend andra recorded the conversation. i thought subtitles wouldn’t be wrong here.
salam again,
the summer heat doesn’t keep creative hafid from exploring new locations and posing the shit out of them.
just married.
hafid shares such deep love for his friends, he decided to marry the both of them. abdulla’s only condition was to wear the same wedding dress as ali, to show off his workout success. hafid picked out the romantic wedding location all by himself - the beautiful sideway of a mosque in the suburbs of dubai. luckily they found a professional wedding photographer, who knows exactly how to handle stolen smartphone cameras
AIYO,PARASITE IN PARADISE, NOT LONG TO GO WHEN THE GOOD OIL RUNS OUT, THEN EAT IMPORTED DOG SHIT OR CAMEL DUNG. SO FAR LIFE HAS BEEN A BLISS FOR YOU OMAR, STEALING AND LOOTING OTHER PEOPLES'S PROPERTY AND YOU ARE ACTUALLY A PICTURE OF HEALTH AND CONTENTMENT. HOW DO YOU DO IT ?
