i have never stolen anything in my life.
that's cool that you think you know me though.
 
id doubt a seller would send it out like that. But if that did happen, just send the seller a message. Much easier
 
hit it with a brick and pour some mayonnaise over the screen.

like magic I tell you

DayDayz e36 - off ebay... right.

its stanley - I'm not going to help a thief, especially a dishonest one.

Really guys???


Somebody makes a post asking for help and you're quick to throw the jabs without knowing anything about that person.

Well the person in question is my sibling and I personally bought the phone myself. I dare you to question my honesty to any member of this board. Not a singleperson on here who has ever dealt with me would have anything bad to say about my integrity. I'm not a thief, nor is my sibling.

Feel free to ask any of the people I've dealt with on NT, or check my 100% positive feedback I have on eBay...



And the phone isn't locked. The contacts are locked so you can't delete them.





So does anybody want to help now, or would you rather just falsely call people thieves the rest of the night?

I apologise for jumping to conclusions.

I helped someone out like this a long time a go and I got burned.

it was all jokes, NT has had many threads like this. If its that serious go to an AT&T store...
 
I think the brother who the phone was bought for should have asked his brother to contact the seller.
