    OP should track the thief to the pub tonight and confront them in person there.

    Probably best to arrive naked for maximum effect.

    I don't know what a tracker mortgage is...

    Ok.

    The GPS tracker have been lost by my son,on return home,in Dublin airport.
    Lost and not stolen.
    As shared above,someone have got it and use it for a while.

    Called the Airport and i've been told that the tracker once reported lost with airline should not have been handled to a staff or third party member to be used driving from Mulhuddart' home to Airport' offices.

    The yearly subscription expires in March and cannot be used unless paid again.
    Also,once i shared my story here,next day the tracker stopped beep-ing the website,so i guess the new owner have read the topic and got aware of my "watching his movements"

    Im afraid that the staff that got my tracker may get in troubles and / or legal action,loss of work and so on.
    I have his home address on the tracking map,i could call and ask him to pass it over but not sure about his reactions.

    Outcome... i gave up and took it as a lesson.

    One positive outcome would be for the employee to PM you on here letting you know that they found your device and had been hoping for a way to make contact in order to return it and then the matter can be closed.

    Exactly, seeing as you are decent enough to not cost them their job then the decent thing for them to do would be to contact you and return it.

    Could send a letter to the address. Explain the situation and give him some way of contacting you. Make it clear that you're not looking to prosecute him in any way. You avoid any risk of him reacting badly/aggressively and he might be happy to return it.

    Going by the route of the tracker, the person is working in some capacity in cargo and not the main terminal, could be two or three companies so tracking could be tricky.

    No but if it’s handed into lost and found and not claimed after 91 days the person who handed it in is classed as the new owner if it, they’re the rules in the airport

    So if I loose something, and it's handed to to say Joey. After 91 days it belongs to Joey ??
    Alot of room for Joey to 'forget' to file the claim

    No the day it’s handed in ‘Joey’ is given a receipt with a time and date on it, the lost item stays with lost and found or airport police, when ‘Joey’ goes back on the 92nd day with the receipt he is told ‘the item was claimed’ or ‘the item was not claimed, it’s yours now’, ‘Joey’ then signs another form to say that it was held for the 91 days and was unclaimed and that he is now the owner of said item. It’s all documented and recorded, if it was handed in in the first place. Thats why I asked for a specific date from the OP, to see if it was over the 91 days or not, or to see if ‘Joey’ didn’t hand it in and is a little scumbag who pocketed it and started using it within a few days of finding said object.
