Bought a phone on Amazon that AT&T told me said was reported stolen. It’s possible that a previous owner either had an unpaid balance or the owner reported stolen. They wouldn’t give me a direct answer just that the device IMEI was blacklisted. I contacted the seller on Amazon and they said they buy them in bulk from an auction so they don’t know/check which ones are blacklisted.
