[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1921415, member: 204485"] Having a receipt from the seller is of little use unless the seller has proof of ownership and if she has blocked communication with you, well, it sounds a bit fishy. You can check [URL='https://www.stolenregister.com/']Stolen Register[/URL] which is an international registry of lost and stolen devices. That may or may not confirm if the device was stolen or lost because it relies on reporting but if it is there, well, you can report it as a crime if not, that's good but not conclusive. Personally I can't imagine why a legitimate seller would not give you the password unless they didn't know what it was. You can make your own deduction there. I think I would report it to the police or at least threaten to unless your money is returned. [/QUOTE]
