'We recommend you visit your nearest Apple Store for more information'

Or call 1-800-MY-APPLE.

If your phone was hacked they can NOT help you.

I'm having the same issue right now. Looking at some discussion on Twitter, it sounds like Apple's activation servers may be experiencing issues. I'd try again later.

Whoooah pardner. I was JUST at the Apple store exchanging my 4s, and the iTunes server is down. Mine is doing the same thing. They told me just to keep trying. Hope I've eased your mind a bit 🙂

Thanks for the update, I was beginning to wonder if it was just me!!

i have the same problem

Just keep trying to activate. I'm antsy, so I'm trying like every 5 minutes or so.

Better yet, just got off hold with Apple Tier 2 Tech - their Verification Server is down. Give it time for a fix. (~2hrs)

My phone was working perfectly until I did a restore :(

Is the issue with Apple then?

It appears to be back up.

Yea it seems to be backup my phone is backing up nd restoring now :)

It looks like they are up now 🙂
