Nadav Nirenberg wasn't without his iPhone for long after he figured out a novel way to get it back from the thief.

A New York City musician used a combination of technology, seduction, a hammer and a bribe to reclaim his missing iPhone from a confused crook.
Jazz trombonist Nadav Nirenberg says he left the phone in a livery cab on New Year's Eve. The next morning, the 27-year-old learned via email that someone was sending messages to women using a dating app on his phone.
Nirenberg logged on to the service and offered the man a date ? posing as a woman. He even posted a picture of a pretty girl.
When the culprit arrived at Nirenberg's Brooklyn apartment building with wine, the musician greeted him with a $20 bill (for the return of the phone), while holding a hammer ? just in case.
The thief handed him the iPhone and left without a word.
