i thought you cant activate phones unless you have proof of where they came from so they dont think that they are stolen?

If there is a bad esn from a cdma phone then you cant use it. IE, verizon user racks up $1000 bill, doesnt pay it, then sells phone.
But you can take a bad esn phone and reprogram it to a different carrier and use it :snky:
