How can I remove device management from my MacBook Pro?

I bought my Macbook (Macbook9,2) from eBay a while back and hadn't had any problems with it. However, I noticed that the Mac seemed to have restrictions set by Mosyle, specifically, A B C Unified School District, and I want to remove them before they cause any problems. Is there any way to do that?

You will not be able to remove them. All you could possibly do is contact the School District that locked it. Unfortunately, you were most likely scammed and received a stolen device. There is no way to bypass the device management as that would defeat the whole purpose of a company/school setting up the device management. Apple will not be able to help either.


Also be aware, they may be able to track the device if they wish or even completely lock it.
