Try switching the ESN to your Sprint account online (or your girlfriend's). I think you can update the settings to get it work on Cricket, (I know for a fact you can get winmo and androids from vzw and sprint on cricket)
What that means is as far as the sprint rep can tell the op stole or found a phone and is trying to activate it on his line. Say you went to the gym and your locker was broken into. The theif stole your phone and activated it before you could report it stolen, you would be SOL. Good luck trying to get your money back
