🙁
 
not sure if one of those ebay unlocks would help you here? they're like $10

Those are for AT&T iphone unlocks.
Not for a venezuelan carrier.
OP, sounds like you got taken.
Next time try to activate it and use it with your sim. If it doesnt work then walk away from all the BS.
Live and learn....
 
but you guys think its blacklisted?or it may work in another country? i dont know much about iphones i never had one thats why he got me stupid me
