Husband Blames iPhone For Smutty Pic Debacle, Fate of Marriage Hangs on Apple Support Discussion
A Jersey woman has called out to Apple support forum users for a little help with a problem she is having. Apparently, she borrowed her husband’s iPhone and found a raunchy pic of him attached to an email sent to another woman’s address. The husband admits to taking the picture, but claims that the email attachment was a glitch. In fact, he said that the folks at his local Apple Genius Bar informed him that “photos sometimes automatically attach themselves to an e-mail address and appear in the sent folder, even though no e-mail was ever sent.” The wife has asked support forum users whether or not this could be true and adds that the future of her marriage rests on the answer.
Several forum members have responded saying that they have experienced the glitch, but many others (including at least one former Mac Genius) believe that this is a far-fetched and hastily concocted excuse to cover up an affair. Personally, I have to agree with the latter group. I mean, even if the glitch exists, why would a guy take a raunchy pic of himself and just let it sit in his iPhone? Plus, the woman claims that she has found other bits of incriminating evidence to support her case (he also has a history of infidelity). By the end of the discussion the wife seems have to come to her senses and realised that she needs to ditch this tool. But what do you think? Have you ever experienced this glitch? Did any of this really happen in the first place? [Support Forums via CNET]

So I’m in the toilet, doing my biz, and passing the time by playing with my mobile phone. When I accidently take a picture of myself, “Oh crap!” I said, and fumbling as fast as I could pressed delete, but accidently hit the short-cut key for Send MMS message. “Double-crap!” I said, and tried to exit the complicated menu system I had entered so easily. Next thing I knew, I had send the picture to the most recent person in my address book. I watched in horror as the little icon animated to indicate ‘message being sent’. What’s worse, is I didn’t recognize the number it sent to, as their number was in my phone, but not their name. After a mad scramble through my contacts lists and sent items to see who owned the number, I discovered I had just met this person recently and had exchanged quick text messages with him. It gets worse. Turns out, the guy I sent the message to is gay (and I’m straight). So you can imagine my relief when I read this story… I can now blame the whole incident on my iPhone (instead of my Nokia).
