So recently someone used a card, none of which applies to my family for a small down payment of the phones original price. The two iphones x's 256 GBs were delivered to our house and we've reported it to our service provider aka Comcast (Phones being bought off of the service Xfinity Mobile)

We were billed but they removed it and we told them we'd be shipping them back. But I went to think about pulling a fast one on them, saying we delivered it to FedEx and the rest was history, because surely they couldn't possibly tell if we told the truth or not.

Now with iPhones being locked for certain characters I took the phone out the box and turned it on, to fool around with it because I wanted to see if I could get on it, but on the set up I can't go any further without entering my sim card.


Now the phone I have now is the iPhone 7 Plus from Verizon, what were to happen if I was to put my SIM into it? Do you think I'd be able to get the service switched to verizon? Comment down because I need to know your guys' opinion.

Well if the iPhone is unlocked
To any carrier than of course, if it's locked strictly to that carrier you would have to get it unlocked for any carrier in order to use it

The phone is most likely locked to that service provider and you would have to pay to have it unlocked to work with any provider.

This is called fraud. Send it back and don't be stupid.

They'll end up blocking the devices if they aren't returned to them, rendering them useless to you anyway. Fraud isn't something you want to be trying, anyway.
