slippery slope, I'll leave morality out, boost, metro pcs, or sim unlock and use on tmobile or at&t. verizon won't touch it, period.

You can always use it as a glorified PDA.

If he was the original owner, he could call up Sprint and get them to unblock the ESN. Otherwise you'll have to get it flashed to another carrier, so see the above list.

If it was me, I'd help get the proper owner of it some how..

Ya who knows maybe they can clear it up for you and have the block lifted. Heck offer to throw them 50 bucks for it!!!!

if its has a lost block on it, that means its owner called it in obviously.. you could call sprint and ask for a return kit, and just send it back... if the owner lost it and bought or had another device to use, Sprint will send it back to the owner..... if the owner did an insurance claim(lost), asurion would get the phone.... +X on the Karma issue lol

devils advocate answer - MetroPCS can activate it all day long
