The International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) is a unique 15-digit serial number assigned to every mobile phone. It is used to identify valid devices and can block a stolen phone from accessing mobile networks.

You can find the IMEI by dialing *#06# on the phone's keypad. It can also be found in the device Settings (General > About on iPhone) or printed on the SIM tray or original box.

Chimaera is an internal Apple policy for devices that were stolen directly from Apple Store inventory or lost in transit. Normal free IMEI checkers only check carrier databases and will say these devices are 'Clean'. Our premium report checks Apple's internal servers to ensure you aren't buying a factory-stolen device that will never activate.

MDM is software used by corporations and schools to control their devices. If you buy a used phone with an active MDM configuration, the company can remotely erase your data, track your location, or restrict your access to the phone at any time.

Many phones are purchased on installment plans (e.g., $30/month). If the original owner sells you the phone but stops paying their monthly bill, the carrier will eventually restrict the phone for non-payment (Financial Lock). Our report verifies if the device is 100% paid off.

Yes. We check the 'Find My' status to ensure the phone does not have an active Activation Lock. If it is ON, the phone requires the previous owner's Apple ID password to be set up and used.

Yes. The report indicates if the device is restricted to a specific network (like AT&T or T-Mobile) or if it is fully compatible with any SIM card globally. We also provide a link to the carrier's device policy.

We verify the original retailer (e.g., Apple Store, Best Buy) and whether the phone is the original device or a refurbished warranty replacement unit. This helps you verify the seller's story.
