How to take an iphone off of the lost/stolen list?

I lost an iphone 4 a while ago and i was able to replace it with an iphone 4s for $200. About a month later, i found the phone and kept it so i could activate it in the future. Now i want to activate it, but verizon is telling me i can't because it is on the lost/ stolen list. How can i get it off this list?

Tell verizon its yours with maybe the receipt or account number, just anything to support your claims that the iphone belongs to you and you havn't found the iphone out on the street or stole it.

Phone Bills
Receipt
Serial Number
imei number
SIM lock?

  • Is there an iPhone app, where you can take a picture next to the item on the list? For example, a grocery list… If you want to remember a certain product that your friend has, and you want to remember just what something looks like, so you take a picture of it, and then with a little explanation. Or a couple words to tell what the item is.

  • 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.
