Bought stolen iPhone 6s. What's next?

Basically, I accidentally bought iPhone 6s and it appears to be stolen. Also, when the store tries to locate the owner, it says it has no owner. But it's blacklisted, so yes, it is definitely stolen. What can I do in such situation? I have the phone number of the people who sold it to me. Can police locate them? I also have emails.

First off, nothing you can do with the phone, period, as far as activating it on ANY carrier in North America or Europe.

Can the police find the seller, ONLY if the person gave you their real name and phone number.

Turn it in to the police.

  • I have a stolen iPhone 5c but I didn't know it was stolen? I bought an iPhone and checked the imei and I found out it was stolen. I can't use it yet because it is stuck in the beginning where it says " please insert a sim card, SIM required" I just want to use it as an iPod since I got it for a good cheap price. It is a sprint phone, and also if I take it to Apple or Sprint will they take the phone away? I didn't know it was stolen and I don't want to get blamed or end up losing money. The iPhone was restored already.
