Did you pay via PayPal? I'd open a claim with them immediately. State that you suspect that you recieved stolen property. Chances are, the seller already has other claims against him - what's odd, is that for some reason, I couldn't view a list of his 'completed sales' (which you can usually see an entire list of all the stuff they've sold in like, the last month or so).. so that in itself is a bit fishy too.

Anyhow, open the claim with PayPal. They may, or may not require you to retrurn the device to the seller in order to get the refund, but I imagine if the seller doesn't even respond to the claim, there's really nobody PayPal can *make* you ship it back to.

That still wouldn't mean that you walked away with the phone for free (getting your money back, and getting to keep it), as Sprint or Asurion *may* come along and ask for it back. Nobody has reported this happening yet, but then, I don't think this has been going on long enough for many people to catch it just yet. I know I caught mine 10 seconds after I looked at my bill, and it was much higher than normal.
