Mum horrified after pictures of a man’s genitals appeared in camera roll of her new iPhone
Lynn Conlin, 37, was excited after purchasing her new device just after Christmas - but she was left disgusted
A HORRIFIED mum purchased a new phone only to find pictures of a naked man's genitals on the camera roll.
Lynn Conlin couldn't wait to start using her new iPhone when she purchased it just after Christmas.
The 37-year-old mum-of-two, who says she is not "technologically minded", asked her husband and teenage daughter to set the phone up for her.
However after they signed her in to her Apple account and the iCloud, she noticed there were 12 images already on the iPhone 5S.
While six of them were blank, the other six showed a man's genitals.

Lynn, who also has a nine-year-old son, said: "I couldn't understand what had happened, neither of us could.
"It is a brand new phone, not a refurbished one or anything, so they couldn't have been left there from a previous owner.
"I took the phone straight back to the shop to complain and the manager took a copy of the images, but couldn't give me any explanation as to why the pictures were on the phone.
"They said they would get back in touch with me to let me know what happened but I haven't heard anything three weeks on.
"I am quite angry about this. I could have bought this phone for one of my kids who could have seen this.
"It's disgusting."
Apple has declined to comment.
Lynn, from Carronshore, Falkirk, purchased the phone at a branch of network Three on Falkirk High Street.
A Three spokesperson said: "In order to assess how this has happened we need to test the device thoroughly.
"We have offered the customer a replacement handset and discount on their line rental as an intermediate gesture while we investigate this serious matter further."
