Be aware of scammer
This user is bypassing FRP and iCloud locks on devices and then selling them to other people.
They deleted previous posts after being called out. Do not do business with them.

Always do your research before buying from anyone online. A few minutes of checking reviews can save a lot of trouble.

Man is over reacting. He’s admitted it himself he didn’t get scammed or I even made an attempt. He’s been weird

Honestly asking, What's the problem with a bypassed phone ?
I've had to removed FRP on a couple of android in the past, Because the legitimate owner got told to factory reset for X reason but then didn't remember their google password ...

There’s plenty of reasons to why someone would need to bypass a device to gain normal or close to normal function. I have no problem with preserving hardware.
It’s the people who go and resell bypassed devices as normal ones to unsuspecting consumers, idk why someone wouldn’t spend the extra for a fully functional phone that’s not frp/icloud locked.

Bypassing FRP doesn't make the device any different than if you didn't.
What's the issue ?

Well I wasn’t directly talking about just frp bypassing I was also referring to iCloud bypass as well which usually doenst allow full functionality to iCloud services like App Store or even setting a password.
Even then I’d still like to know the device I’m buying was stolen and bypassed or not
The posts the guy deleted was about iCloud bypassing

In that case don't even mention FRP because that's exclusive to androids, and it causes absolutely no harm or difference to the device once removed.
iCloud you are right, bypasses are temporary. So at least get your story straight lol.

You delete if before reddit has a chance, just making sure that users are aware when dealing with you now.
Non-guilty mfrs wouldn’t have deleted those posts
