Apple theft exploit:

- steal phone - break phone - return to Apple store for warranty replacement (minor social engineering may be required here)

Theif gets a working phone with a different IMEI. The worst part is, the friend of mine who this happened to found out about it because it invalidated her theft insurance.

While that exploit may work - it doesn't scale too well.
