iPhone IMei number

I’ve recently sold my old iPhone on eBay. I think the person who has received it is trying to send me back a different phone which is damaged.

I never wrote down my IMei Number but I did have AppleCare and it’s still running so is there a way I can get my number

iPhone 11 Pro Max

The iPhone imei number on the box and the imei number inside are different. I bought an iphone 14 pro max 512 GB phone on 26.08.2023 from the Alexandroupolis Public store in Greece. We did not open it there for tax free. We opened it in our country after passing customs. The phone inside is fake. Made in China. But the box is original. I contacted them. I went there again, but they didn't believe me. But I caught something today. I found that the warranty period in Apple support will end on 10 June 2024. Normally, the warranty starts with the invoice date. I bought the phone on 26 August 2023. My original phone in the box was lost and stolen. But I don't understand how it happens. And when there are public stores, they are not guilty at all. But I don't have my phone. I'm not stupid enough to report my own phone. Please help me. [Edited by Moderator]

IMEI differs to the one I registered This is going to sound very strange and I'm wondering what could have led to this. I received my iphone 14 pro last October and immediately registered it for insurance purposes with the IMEI number. I am the only person in my household with an iphone 14 pro. When I enter the IMEI number it automatically populates with the phone make and model - iphone 14 pro. Simple. My phone was stolen this weekend so I logged it and need proof of purchase, barring...etc. I contact my provider and they send this but it is for a different IMEI number. I contact them and they confirm they sent me an iphone with IMEI #2 (which differs entirely from the one I have) and that has been used with my phone number until September 16th, when it was barred. I don't have the box, I don't have anything to prove that the IMEI entered was on the phone but I don't have any other iphone 14 pro and I don't see how I could make up a number and just so happen to also get an iphone 14 pro IMEI number that's valid. Obviously my insurer is only insuring the IMEI #1 that I shared but I don't have access to this phone (apparently I never have). Is it ever possible to have 2 IMEI numbers?! OR that the packaging refers to a different IMEI number?! Thanks for any insight, feel like this is going to be a lot cause though. So glad I paid for that insurance every month!

Then you need to file a complaint with eBay seller protection.
