Some random broke individual who looks into discarded items (ie trash or stuff left by someone else) and tries to resell the items for a profit.
Look, I found this cellular device from the tenant who vacated this apartment. -How much do you think I could resell it for? I didn't steal it, I'm a scavenger you know...
