A man who may be the most honest hack in town went out of his way to return a brand-new iPhone 5 to an absent-minded fare and refused to take a dime in reward.
“Money is nothing to me,” Mohammad Riyaz said after returning the pricey phone to an IBM sales manager who had left it behind after hailing a cab from Madison Square Park to his Upper West Side brownstone.
“This is what it is all about,” Riyaz said about helping others while parked outside the unidentified fare’s home on West 69th Street.
Riyaz spotted the latest iPhone which can cost from $650 to $850 and is a prized target for thieves and doggedly tracked down its businessman owner.
