I think the owner of the lost BTC is about to find this out the hard way if he
tries to follow one suggestion for recovering the bits:

  go to the police! 25k BTC are about $500.000, thats crazy! they can
  investigate and find out who it was.

at which point the police will either (a) laugh him out of the station or (b)
ask him to take a urine/blood test to figure out what he's on.

Peter.
