Quick question. I bought a phone and it’s locked. Factory reset but requires the previous owners google to unlock. It’s an insurance sale. I have asked the seller to update me on any info but haven’t had a reply.
Is the phone a very expensive brick ?.
I mean obviously but I can just report the sale. It’s on a well known site and I think stolen things get quick responses. It was going cheap and then a phone company knocked the price up. Meaning they can unlock it.
Potentially but I think it’s pretty unlikely. Looking at similar sellers and the sellers other listings. They buy in bulk insurance write offs and sell the products for profit.
