Checking the serial number at Check Your Service and Support Coverage - Apple Support

shows that they were ‘replaced’.


That means the serial number is tied to a device that was deemed defective or damaged and was replaced by Apple without the original being returned as required,


or


the device was reported lost or stolen in transit


or


The serial number has been used to manufacture counterfeit devices.


Apple won’t touch them under any circumstances. Even if they are “real”, they are unsupportable.
