I'm not worried about it being picked up by cops. If it comes to that, I bought it off of Kijiji from shady people who led me to believe it was legit. I will then gladly hand over the iPhone with a surprised look and say I don't know how this could have happened. It's only $40, and my buddy says the phone has already been remote activated before, so the victim of theft must have given up hope by now.

Brandon, if I activate the phone, can Find My iPhone still pick it up if it were to be on a network? Or once I activate it and do all that reset stuff will it be untraceable? I know the IMEI number or whatever the SIM tray has on it will be technically evidence, but if I have Find My iPhone turned off in settings once I reset it, won't it be unable to be located?
