    Either stolen or fraudsters who set up carrier accounts, selling the devices they can get and not paying the bill which will cause the phone to become useless at some point

      The iPhones will work if u never pay monthly bills. They just stay locked carrier. Thats why there alot of locked att iphones on amazon. If u check their imei it will show u its locked and if u try to do unlock request through att website it will show u it can not be unlocked cuz money owed on iphone. Iphone will remain working under only to the carriers it owe money too. And their sister carriers like att also owns cricket so if u buy locked att iphone it will also work with cricket carrier. Same goes with tmobile. Verizon and such. Theres a way to get carrier locked iPhones unlocked through 3rd party or u can do it urself on laptop its called SimUnlock but if u ever restart or hard reset the iphone the sim unlock becomes locked again till program reinstalled. Which is annoying cuz everytime u update ios iphone requires restart.

        Nope, the phones get out on a non pay blacklist so they can’t be reactivated

          Ok if u say so. I do this for living. How else do u think carrier locked iphones exist? As long as its not reported lost or stolen. They will always work even if u made no payments on it. Ur soo wrong its not even worth arguing with u. How old are u. 10? Theres no such a thing called none pay blacklist lol. Where u come up with this 💩? None pay blacklist lol

    Stolen or financed for sure. Been buying and selling iphones since 2006 with iphones and rule 1. Never buy iphone with pictures in some car on someones lap and i hate to say this i usually dont buy from black kids. Specially the ones with profile pic of them giving the finger or acting like wanna be thug or them smoking blunts with in groups lol it is what it is. Alot of them sell ^ icloud locked iphones ^ which means they literally go around stealing ppls iphones and selling for parts and description always same : ** i forgot my icloud but u can connect itunes and u good to go ** with horrible spelling btw. As far as this iphone for 800$. Yes it is 100% bad buy

    Thats a 1250$ iphone. I have the iphone 15 pro max too and for 800$ lol hell no. And hes showing u the IMEI number because it hasnt been reported stolen yet but check month later after purchasing. That will change.
