Got scammed and the phone doesn't say fake screen replacement

I bought an old iphone xs max in vietnam and was tricked into buying a phone with fake screen, i don't know how they fixed it so it doesn't say in settings, what should i do with the meager salary of a student. 😢

iPhone XS Max, iOS 15

Make sure to always purchase Apple devices from an authorized reseller or Apple Store so you can be guaranteed that your purchase is an Apple original product -parts and all.


I guess your only other option is to reach out to the seller and look into their refund option


Or else you will be stuck with an iPhone having a non-Apple screen
