Hmmm Question. Where did you buy the phone, was it from a reputable tech or Samsung store or was it from a seller and individual seller, looking to offload the phone?

Also make sure it's an original Samsung phone and not a **bleep**, and do check if it's not blacklisted

find its IMEI number and then use a blacklist checker, either through your carrier or an online service. Here's a step-by-step guide: 

1. Find the IMEI Number:
Dial *#06# on your phone's keypad.
The IMEI number will be displayed on the screen.
You can also find it in the phone's settings under "About phone" or "About device".
If you have the original packaging, the IMEI might also be on a label.
2. Check with your Carrier:
Contact your mobile service provider and provide them with the IMEI number.
They can check their database to see if the phone is blacklisted.
3. Use an Online Blacklist Checker:
There are websites that offer IMEI blacklist checks, some free and some requiring a fee.
Examples include IMEI.info, Swappa.com, and UnlockBoot.
These sites will typically ask you to enter the IMEI number and will then provide the blacklist status of the phone.
4. Consider a Device History Report:
For a more comprehensive check, consider purchasing a device history report from a service like Phonecheck.
These reports can reveal not just blacklist status, but also other issues like stolen reports, carrier eligibility, and more.
Important Considerations:
Buying used phones:
Always check the blacklist status before purchasing a used phone to avoid buying a phone that is unusable.
Blacklisting reasons:
Blacklisting can occur if a phone is reported lost or stolen, or if there are unpaid bills associated with the phone.
Database variations:
Not all blacklist databases are identical, so it's possible for a phone to be blacklisted in one database but not another, according to IMEI.info.
