Genuine Camera Message

I bought a used iphone and got it with this message, I am not sure if the camera has been replaced or defective, if the camera has been changed is there any problem with the message, as the camera has good quality. no one has given me an answer, some services tell me that even if it has been changed there is no problem as fake cameras do not exist

I believe that the message that you are seeing is:

Unable to verify this iPhone has a genuine Apple camera.

This means that your iPhone's system is unable to determine whether the camera is a genuine Apple camera or not. You can contact the seller of your iPhone 12 Pro and ask whether the camera has been replaced by a third party repair center. After that, the decision is yours whether to keep the iPhone or return it for your money back.

Request a return. The seller should have known better. Seems like a scam, though a full-assumption, on my part.
