I need to know if the Airpods I purchased on Facebook marketplace are legit Apple produced airpods or if I got scammed.
I am getting a notice when I connect to bluetooth saying
"Cannot Verify AirPods" "These headphones could not be verified as genuine apple airpods
would you like to connect anyway?"
The serial number is GW****MMT printed on both the airpods as well as the box.
Thank you,
Kristi

I suspect that they are a return that was never washed off of Apple's device database. So, contact Apple Support. They'd have the answer to this, upfront.

Serial numbers can be copied. And variously have been.

If you have to pair your AirPods using the Bluetooth menu in settings, they are not genuine.
