Hi Guys! I just bought a galaxy a54 from a seller off eBay. The listing said it was new, but when I got it the seal to the box was broken. Not terrible in itself, BUT when I turned it on it didn’t greet me with a setup screen, it just unlocked straight to the homescreen. The weather widget said the phone is in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.

Is it ok to reset the phone, and use it normally, or will it steal my Google account and all other information it can get if I do?

I’d appreciate any help Thanks!

    If it was listed as “New” you should expect to get a sealed device.

    There are categories for items that have been opened but otherwise are unused.

      Exactly. Anyone defending this shouldn’t be selling on eBay. It’s just plain deceitful otherwise.
