Guest arunhallan Posted September 7, 2003 Report Posted September 7, 2003 Im selling my phone on ebay stating that it is app unlocked... I have since received an email from someone from Orange's "fraud department" saying that this is illegal and they can prosecute. Is this guy for real or is he just some1 winding me up. Im just a student trying to pay back debts, not some fraudster!
Guest muff Posted September 7, 2003 Report Posted September 7, 2003 I suspect they are winding you up after all, Orange have an official site for unlocking
Guest Gorskar Posted September 8, 2003 Report Posted September 8, 2003 Of course its not Illegal. Its your phone, you can do whatever u want with it. The fact that orange provide a website to do the unlocking for you kind of undermines any sort of agruement like that, and I suspect this is a hoax. Either that or they think it is network unlocked which is also perfectly legal, they just don't like people doing it.
Guest Terwin Posted September 9, 2003 Report Posted September 9, 2003 Whenever you get emails like this make sure to look at the raw email header. From: can be spoofed, but the actual header for an email will give you the true source. It can be very enlightening as to the validity of the source of the email. My bet someone is messing with you. If it is Orange, they need to state specificly just what law is being broken. Afterall, the app unlock state on the phone is merely a provxml preference file setting.
Guest ashley.flynn Posted September 11, 2003 Report Posted September 11, 2003 just be aware that orange may say they are not liable for damage caused to the phone once it is unlocked! so remember to if you break it recertify :)
