Lost phone found in tupperware buried in soil in deserted plot
2026-03-04
A man in Pingtung recently found his lost phone in an unexpected location. It was in a ziplock bag, inside a tupperware, buried under the soil of a large deserted plot of land in Chaozhou. He was able to track down the phone, and could even hear it ringing, but was unable to find it, as he had never thought that it would be underground. In the end, he called the police for help, and they managed to recover the phone.
The officers are demonstrating how they recovered a lost phone in this large plot of land. The search took quite some time in the bushes.
- The location of the phone was identified, so I turned on the tracking function, but the plot of land was more than 300 ping.
The plot of land was on Beimen Road in Chaozhou Township, Pingtung. The owner knew that the device was somewhere here. After making a phone call to the device, he could hear it ring, but still couldn’t find it anywhere, so he called the police for help.

I knelt down and noticed that the ringtone grew increasingly louder. I dug into the ground with my bare hands, and there it was, covered with a white towel.

It sounded like it came out of a speaker, but I couldn’t figure out where exactly it was. I could tell that it’s underground. We were all surprised when the officer dug it up.
The phone was sealed in a ziplock bag and placed in a tupperware. After an hour, the police finally found it and dug it up, much to the surprise of the owner. But how did it end up there in the first place? Not to mention that the location actually changed once.

The day before, it was on the other side. After just one day, it was here on our side. They probably wanted to embezzle it, but the device was locked, so it was of no use and couldn’t be sold or pawned.
Fortunately, the rightful owner managed to recover his lost device with the help of the police. It was an almost impossible feat in this large crop of deserted land.
