United States citizen Colleen Grady is also a blogger in the nation who has recently visited Indian pink city of Jaipur. In her visit to the city, in a crowded place of a street market, she lost her iPhone X. This was not taken by her in a light way as we all know, a mobile phone is one amongst essentials. But she went on to her twitter handle and her blog to write about the incident.
Colleen did not just stick to writing how she lost her phone and surely did not ask for help on the social media platform, but she insulted the nation. She called India 'the poorest country who did not know the cost of an iPhone X'. A local person did return her phone back, and she was not happy but was surprised that people returned not knowing its value.
Yes, sounds very infuriating. This is her talking about the Indian nation in her own disrespectful words. "Yep, I lost it in the poorest most overcrowded country I have ever visited and one of the most scammy tourist cities in all of India... sleek, expensive, 5-month-old iPhone X".
Colleen went on to say that she 'didn't expect to get it back since the phone was "worth more money than some people in this country will have in their whole lifetime". Anyone who finds it "probably would not even know what to do with it",' that was her take on the locals returning her phone back.
Being a travel blogger and a yoga instructor herself, she was negligent all over. This was not received well by the Indian social media users who took to the same handle to slam her of the words she said. "Toxic ignorance", and "racist", were just the simplest of them all.

It is this she wrote after she was returned her phone she lost, " We called the family and zipped around on their motorcycles to get back to my computer to try to find my iPhone. Then I found out that it is irrelevant if your phone is in aeroplane mode. The owner of the guesthouse left some messages to my phone in Hindi in case anyone found it. And I just was still frozen in shock".
