What do I do if the IPhone I bought is marked stolen?

My phone broke, and so I got on craigslist and found someone in my local area who had an IPhone 4 for sale, carrier Sprint. So we met up showed my on the computer that the ESN was clean said it wasn't stolen etc. A couple hours later when I go to my local sprint to activate it, the lady told me it was stolen and that they can't activate it. I have a new phone now that's not the problem, it's just now I have a beautiful new iPhone, that I don't know what to do with.

Who ever sold it to you jacked u.

Brittney, take the telephone to the police and report the scam there.

  • Why hasn't my iPhone 5 been marked as Shipped? I pre-ordered with At&t the first day & it said it would arrive the 21st. I have received one email saying my items are being proceed to be shipped, this was 3 days ago. I keep checking the site to see if they updated with a tracking number.what's going on? I haven't received an email saying it's been delayed or anything. I'm very anxious.

  • I've bought a stolen iphone So a few weeks ago my beloved iphone was stolen. Being the iphone lover i'm, i couldnt last a week without it so i was desperate enough to get on ebay and purchase one. Today i got my iphone, chucked my sim in there but there was no signal, so popped down to my local vodafone for them to tell me it was reported stolen! What do i do now! Have i essentially just lost £735?
  • 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.
