They were directed to Wayne Dobson's property by the 'Find My iPhone' app, which tracks down lost or stolen Apple devices.
But Dobson quickly realised something wasn't quite right. Two years ago strangers started turning up at his front door to demand their phones back.

The app can pinpoint Apple devices on a map. Mobile phones use a combination of satellite GPS and signals from mobile phone masts to work out their location.
Dobson's home had been wrongly assigned as a mast, which was pointing people his way.

Beside her frozen bodies of two more young victims: seven year old boy and six-year old girl. Instead of the traditional DNA researchers studied proteins in tissues and found that apparently healthy girl had a bacterial lung infection resembling tuberculosis. For the first time the infection was detected in mummies. research team from New York University (City University of New York), led by Angelica Kortels (Angelique Corthals) examined samples of mummies (known as Maiden, "Maid"),Unique mummy was discovered in 1999 flank of the volcano Lyulyaylyako (Llullaillaco), rising to 6739 meters above sea level on the border between Argentina and Chile. was found three mummies, which, in contrast to the embalmed Egyptian "colleagues" were deep-frozen. The body has also undergone a seven year old boy studying, but explore the remains of a six-year girl, scientists still are not solved. Perhaps once it was struck by lightning, which could affect the accuracy of the results of the study. Rather, the three children were sacrificed, as evidenced by being close to them artifacts of gold, silver, clothes, bowls with food and extravagant headdress of white feathers unknown birds. Historians suggest that the children were selected by the Incas for their beauty (in addition, children were considered more pure beings than adults) and sacrificed. Inca is not often brought children to sacrifice.

Spain striker David Villa is being courted by several Premier League clubs. Photo: PA
The transfer market opens for business again on January 1, allowing Barclays Premier League sides one last chance to tinker with their squads for the rest of the season.
ARSENAL
Manager Arsene Wenger is looking to strengthen across the board to breath fresh life into Arsenal's push for a top four finish. A striker tops Wenger's shopping list with David Villa a possible target.
INS:
OUTS: Marouane Chamakh (West Ham, loan), Johan Djourou (Hannover, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES:, Andrey Arshavin, Andre Santos, Sebastien Squillaci.
ASTON VILLA
Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert spent £23 million during the summer, placed his trust in youth and fielded the youngest ever Premier League side this season with an average age of less than 24. Manchester City's 20-year-old striker John Guidetti is a possible loan target while Dnipro £2million-rated midfielder Derek Boateng is also on Lambert's radar.
INS:
OUTS:
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Darren Bent, Charles N'Zogbia.
CHELSEA
Interim manager Rafael Benitez has all but confirmed Chelsea are trying to sign a new striker but it remains to be seen whether they will spend big on the likes of Radamel Falcao or look for a cut-price alternative, such as David Villa, Alvaro Negredo or Andre Schurrle. A new midfielder could also arrive.
INS: Demba Ba (Newcastle, £7.5m)
OUTS: Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool, £12m); Todd Kane (Blackburn, loan); Sam Walker (Colchester, loan); Billy Clifford (Colchester, loan)
Financial constraints mean David Moyes does not expect to be busy in the window but he would ideally like to add some more firepower if he can and has been looking at Paris St Germain striker Kevin Gameiro.
INS:
OUTS: Ross Barkley (Leeds, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: John Heitinga.
FULHAM
Martin Jol has not hidden his need for new signings in January. The departures of Mousa Dembele and Clint Dempsey late in the summer window have left Fulham light, meaning a central midfielder and centre-back are vital additions.
INS: Chris David (FC Twente, undisclosed)
OUTS: Stephen Kelly (Reading, undisclosed)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Pajtim Kasami, Brede Hangeland, David Stockdale, Csaba Somogyi and Mickael Tavares.

LIVERPOOL
Manager Brendan Rodgers has admitted he does not have much to spend in January and a deal for Chelsea forward Daniel Sturridge will take up the vast chunk of his budget. Blackpool winger Tom Ince is the other signing the club are hopeful of wrapping up early on while Rodgers continues to be linked with Birmingham's Jack Butland despite saying he would not be signing a goalkeeper in January.
INS: Daniel Sturridge (Chelsea, £12m)
OUTS: Joe Cole (West Ham, free); Nuri Sahin (Dortmund, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Joe Cole, Stewart Downing, Jordan Henderson, Sebastian Coates.
MANCHESTER CITY
Roberto Mancini has repeatedly played down speculation he could dip into the market but it will not go away and there is a feeling fresh blood could add impetus to City's title challenge, although some high-earners might have to be moved on first.
INS:
OUTS:
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Mario Balotelli, Edin Dzeko, Kolo Toure, Joleon Lescott.
MANCHESTER UNITED
Sir Alex Ferguson says he is happy with his squad and January is not a time when he does a lot of business. But don't discount a new signing, even if the actual player does not arrive until the summer.
INS:
OUTS: Joshua King (Blackburn, £1m); Angelo Henriquez (Wigan, loan); Robbie Brady (Hull, undisclosed); David Petrucci (Peterborough, loan); Scott Wootton (Peterborough, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Federico Macheda.
NEWCASTLE
Alan Pardew knows he needs at least one, if not two or three additions to a squad ravaged by injuries during the opening half of the campaign with Marseille striker Loic Remy, Lille full-back Mathieu Debuchy and FC Twente defender Douglas among his major targets, although much will depend on whether or not Demba Ba remains on the books at the end of January.
INS: Mathieu Debuchy (Lille, £6m)
OUTS: Demba Ba (Chelsea, £7.5m)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Xisco, Nile Ranger.
NORWICH
Norwich could look to add another striker to their squad as they have managed only 20 goals so far in the league. A move for a goalkeeper is a possibility with England international John Ruddy sidelined following a groin operation.
INS:
OUTS: Elliot Ward (Nottingham Forest, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Marc Tierney, Simon Lappin, Steve Morison.
QPR
Where do we start? QPR's miserable season is due in no small thanks to their completely unbalanced squad. Nicolas Anelka is being targeted to fill the large void in attack, while central defence is another area requiring improvements.
INS: Tal Ben Haim (unattached); Loic Remy (Marseille, £8m)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Jose Bosingwa, Esteban Granero, Hogan Ephraim, Rob Hulse and Jay Bothroyd.
Joleon Lescott has fallen out of favour at Man City and could be on the move. Credit: PA
READING
The realisation at Reading that they failed to strengthen sufficiently during the summer may have come too late. Manager Brian McDermott is looking for two to three players with top flight experience. Expect Andrey Arshavin to be one of them.
INS: Daniel Carrico (Sporting Lisbon, £500k); Hope Akpan (Crawley, undisclosed); Stephen Kelly (Fulham, undisclosed)
OUTS: Dominic Samuel (Colchester, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: None.
SOUTHAMPTON
Saints' defence may have improved recently but a centre-back is still a high priority. A new goalkeeper could be a wily addition, while more attacking options would not go amiss with survival in mind.
INS: Vegard Forren (Molde, £4.2m)
OUTS: Ryan Dickson (Bradford, loan); Sam Hoskins (Stevenage, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Danny Fox, Tadanari Lee, Danny Butterfield, Steve de Ridder, Sam Hoskins and Jonathan Forte.
STOKE
Boss Tony Pulis has made it clear he has no intention of letting any of his key players - such as skipper Ryan Shawcross or goalkeeper Asmir Begovic - leave in January, while indicating he will be looking to "bring one or two in".
INS:
OUTS: Danny Higginbotham (Sheffield United, free); Michael Tonge (Leeds, undisclosed)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Wilson Palacios, Cameron Jerome, Rory Delap.
SUNDERLAND
Martin O'Neill has made no secret of his desire to strengthen further in January. Striking a permanent deal for on-loan Tottenham full-back Danny Rose could be a focus, and he has also been linked with a move for Genoa defender Andreas Granqvist, while extra physicality in central midfield is something he feels he needs to add.
INS: Alfred N'Diaye (Bursaspor, undisclosed); Kader Mangane (Al-Hilal, loan)
OUTS: David Meyler (Hull, undisclosed)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Titus Bramble, Matthew Kilgallon, Fraizer Campbell, Ji Dong-won.
Reading may be tempted to sign Arsenal's Russian forward Andrey Arshavin. Credit: PA
SWANSEA
Swansea manager Michael Laudrup is keen to bring in a striker to allow top scorer Michu to return to his favoured attacking midfielder role. Celta Vigo's Iago Aspas and Sporting Braga's Ederzito Lopes are thought to be at the top of the Dane's wishlist.
INS: Roland Lamah (Osasuna, loan)
OUTS:
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Danny Graham, Luke Moore, Mark Gower, Leroy Lita, Jazz Richards, Alan Tate.
TOTTENHAM
Manager Andre Villas-Boas says he will not be active in the transfer market, but he only has two recognised strikers and could therefore make a move for Shakhtar Donetsk forward Willian, Athletic Bilbao's Fernando Llorente or Loic Remy of Marseille.
INS: Zeki Fryers (Standard Liege, undisclosed)
OUTS: Carlo Cudicini (LA Galaxy, free)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: Heurelho Gomes, David Bentley, Jermaine Jenas, Danny Rose, Tom Huddlestone.
WEST BROM
Baggies boss Steve Clarke has constantly made it clear he is happy with the squad at his disposal for the remainder of the season after climbing in to the top six of the Barclays Premier League and any additions are likely to be only loanees.
INS:
OUTS: Chris Wood (Leicester, £1.5m); Sam Mantom (Walsall, free); Gonzalo Jara (Nottingham Forest, loan)
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: None.
WEST HAM
Manager Sam Allardyce has already been linked with big-name players such as David Beckham and Nicolas Anelka but knows the club's wage structure could scupper such deals. A loan move for an attacking player could go ahead following Yossi Benayoun's return to parent club Chelsea.
INS: Sean Maguire (Waterford, undisclosed); Joe Cole (Liverpool, free); Wellington Paulista (Cruzeiro, loan)
OUTS:
POTENTIAL DEPARTURES: None.
WIGAN
The January transfer window is a welcome arrival for Wigan boss Roberto Martinez, who has been contending with an injury crisis. Midfielder Roger Espinoza's transfer from Sporting Kansas City has already been completed along with a loan deal for Manchester United striker Angelo Henriquez. The Latics have also been linked with former Chelsea striker Salomon Kalou, now at Lille, and Manchester City midfielder Abdisalam Ibrahim.

For bread, they risk their lives. In a suburb of the capital Damascus, every day and in every hour of daylight, men, women and children run a gauntlet of gunfire to bring bread back to their homes.
Families wait for gaps in the gunfire as they clutch their bread Credit: ITV News
They're on the frontline of a bitter, deadlocked war in one of several suburbs that ring the city.
Their homes are in a largely rebel controlled area, Yarmouk.
For the most part, it is a maze of cinderblock houses and narrow streets, housing tens of thousands of Syrians and Palestinians, themselves refugees from a different conflict.
Every day thousands of them leave Yarmouk, in huddled groups of ten or twenty people, to feed their families. Women cradle infants or pull reluctant children behind them, men carry plastic bags with a few possessions or things to sell.
At its far end Yarmouk opens up into a few wide streets, lined with six story blocks of flats. This is contested ground.
On one side are the rebels who've held Yarmouk for months. On the other forces loyal to President Assad.
Each set of gunmen allows the people free passage. But as soon as the people pass, each side takes the opportunity to shoot into the streets controlled by the other side.
Hundreds of thousands used to live here, but streets are virtually deserted now Credit: ITV News
The people buy their bread at a government-controlled bakery which is heaving with hundreds of people desperate for food before the supply of flour runs out.
And then they go back to the frontline junction and a street that is littered with empty shells.
Local men in orange bibs line them up. The men in army uniform bring them forward until it is judged safe to cross.
Then they usher them forward, to dash over the junction and down the road. It is a heart-stopping moment, like someone poised on a cliff before plunging into the water beneath.
It's a fight for survival - at the bakery demand is intense Credit: ITV News
To see them wince at the sound of bullets before they sprint, is an insight into the daily terror they endure.
Many of their faces are filled with apprehension, with fear. They are running for their lives every day. And they are weary of it.
The gunmen in uniform are not what they seem. They are not full time Syrian army soldiers.
A few months ago they were full time workers. One is a banker, one an engineer, another a mechanic.
They believed their district was about to be attacked and overrun by people they believe to be terrorists and foreigners.
They have been trained and armed by the Syrian army, so regular soldiers can fight elsewhere. They are the Home Guard of their area. They have forty days training, weapons from the army, automatic rifles and machine guns.
Men in army uniform in Damascus
They fight to hold back the rebel advance.
They don't agree with everything Assad has done. They too wanted reform years ago. But they believe a rebel victory will usher in a Syria ruled by Islamic extremists, who will make life hell for secular Syrians, Christians, Druze and anyone who doesn't adhere to their strict interpretation of Islam.
While we were on the frontline at Yarmouk, there were periods of intense gunfire as each side traded shots. Men have died here recently. But the frontline hasn't moved for months. It is a war of potshots and deadlock.
And amid it all, civilians run for their lives clutching their warm bread, clutching the faint hope that one day, this horror will come to an end.

President Obama and his administration have been vocal on Britain's role in Europe.
President Obama reiterated America's desire for Britain to remain a key player in the European Union during his phone call with David Cameron today.
The call, during which the leaders discussed the Algerian hostage crisis, saw Mr Cameron outline his stance on Britain's role in Europe ahead of a keynote speech in Amsterdam, which was later postponed due to the kidnappings.

Campaigner Peter Tatchell hailed the policy change as a "significant development".
Gay human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell has welcomed the Church of England's lifting of a ban on gay bishops, but said the lack of an "official statement" from the House of Bishops or the Archbishop of Canterbury is "perplexing".
"If the policy has been changed, it is a significant development and should be officially confirmed by Anglican leaders," he said, adding: "I hope this means the way is now open for (Dean of St Albans) Jeffrey John to be appointed as a bishop."
A demonstrator shouts at police officers as she takes part in a demonstration to mourn the death of the rape victim
A friend of the young medical student who was gang raped on a bus in Delhi has made an emotional plea to Indian citizens to help victims of violent crime.
"We tried to stop people passing by. Several auto rickshaws, cars and bikes slowed down but no one stopped for about 25 minutes," he told India's Zee News.
He also criticised the police for taking two hours to call an ambulance and for failing to offer either victim - both of whom had been stripped by their attackers - any clothes.
"If you can help someone, help them. If a single person had helped me that night, things would have been different," he said.
"I never had thoughts of leaving her and running away. Even an animal would not do that ... [But] I do think sometimes about why I didn't get an auto, why did I take that bus."

Kevin-Prince Boateng said he warned the referee three times of the abuse.
AC Milan midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng has vowed to walk off the field in a competitive football game if he is subjected to any more racial abuse.
The 25-year-old Ghanaian international made world news after storming off the pitch with his teammates during the Italian club's friendly match yesterday, in protest at repeated racial abuse from the stands.
"I don't care what game it is - a friendly, Italian league or Champions League match - I would walk off again," he told CNN today, while calling for life bans for fans who racially abuse players. "If there is a racism those people should be banned from the stadium forever."
The former Premier League player and his teammates received wide praise in the game for their response to the taunts, though former Milan star Clarence Seedorf warned the action may encourage more dissent from fans.

Joe Cole, pictured in 2003, has returned to the fold with West Ham United.
Returning midfielder Joe Cole said he will never forget cleaning the toilet floors ahead of his first West Ham debut - and intends to make the most of a second chance at Upton Park.
The 31-year-old has come back to his boyhood club on a free transfer from Liverpool, and looks likely to go straight into the squad for the FA Cup third-round tie against Manchester United. Cole was among a crop of Premier League stars to emerge from West Ham's academy.
He signed professionally in 1998, and became a fans' favourite before leaving for Chelsea in 2003, the year in which the east London club were relegated from the Premier League.
The midfielder has been capped 56 times by England, and got his introduction to first-team football with the Hammers back in January 1999, in an FA Cup tie against Swansea at Upton Park.

Visitors to St Peter's Square must carry euro coins and notes to pay their way.
Visitors to the Vatican have been ordered to pay in "cash only" after Italy's central bank blocked card payments at the tiny city state following a money-laundering row.
The ban on electronic payments extends from museums to Vatican pharmacies, supermarkets and department stores, and has caused queues to gather with many card-carrying tourists unaware of the rule.
Italian daily Corriere della Sera reported that the Bank of Italy took the action because the Holy See has not yet fully complied with European Union safeguards against money laundering.
