It might seem so, but I would give the benefit of doubt to the poster. A very good friend of mine had a similar experience -- his mac was stolen from his car and he had installed Prey Project (http://preyproject.com/ http://preyproject.com/ ) on it -- an open source anti-theft solution. He could get the pictures and location of the person, gave it to Santa Barbara Police, but, alas, they couldn't/didn't do anything. It's been almost 3 months now.
