tried to restore iPhone 3G - error 1015

I bought a second hand iPhone 3G. It worked fine but had all kind of personal info on it. Wanted to restore to original settings via iTunes, but now I keep getting an error message: 1015 and the phone is not functional any more. It merely shows the charger cable and indicates that I need to reconnect with iTunes. I tried several times, alway get the message: an unnknown error ocurred: 1015

Check this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694, however the 1015 error generally relates to jailbroken phones or ones where someone is trying to downgrade or install software that is not the latest version.
