do i need to remove the SIM card from my iPhone 5 before selling it?

I just upgraded to an iPhone 6 Plus and want to sell my iPhone to Amazon. Is there a SIM card? Do I need to remove it? I already disabled the find my iPhone and erased the phone. When you turn it on now, it starts the set-up process. Just want to be sure I don't do anything that will compromise my data or identity.

Just to make sure you've done everything correctly, take a look at this article.

And yes, if your SIM card is still inside of the phone, you need to remove it from the phone.


Hope this helps!
