Nela García, a Spanish woman, found a mobile phone on the street in Madrid. The phone had no lock code, and its contents were minimal, with only a few photos of buildings and landscapes, and profiles on Instagram and Facebook under the name Marta Gutiérrez. Nela tried to contact Marta but received no response. She then used a reverse Google image search to identify the person in the photos as Beatriz Williams, an American who had died in a car accident eight years ago. Nela contacted Beatriz's father, who confirmed her identity and thanked Nela for informing him about the impersonation. Nela also found a phone number on the phone's call log and decided to call it, receiving a strange automated message. She suspects that the phone may be part of a scam or a viral game, and invites her followers to call the number and investigate further.
