Why my "BRAND NEW" unactivated iphone got warranty.
I just bought the new iphone from the ebay. The seller claim that this phone is the "BRAND NEW NEVER USED" one. However, the overall condition look suspicious. Then I try to check the serial number thru "Online Service Assistant" of apple (

I wonder why I just bought this iphone but it answered like this. Then I check the IMEI number on the box with the phone itself I found that it wasn't similar !
I check the serial number on the box (not on the phone) thru online service assistant again. It showed as follow :-

So Can it be concluded that the phone I got is the used one that may have some defect that have been claimed with apple.

Thank you
