You don't think the thief would wipe out your hard drive first?

Criminals are stupid.

My customer had a laptop stolen from their salesmans car. A couple of
weeks later, they received annoyed emails, in the name of the same
salesman who lost the laptop. Evidently it was the eventual recipient
of the laptop. He was complaining about receiving "spam" (company
mail!).

Turned out it was some kind of church organisation who I guess must
have obtained it from a shady source - they were very apologetic, and
keen to quietly return the laptop to it's rightful owners.


So, the thief was smart enough not to use it, just sold it.

The thief wasn't smart enough to clean it and the owner wasn't
smart enough to (password and otherwise) protect it.

All true...

Although of course if they *had* password protected it, they would
never have got it back :)
