    Don't touch it with a bargepole, he's defaulting on his bill, it can be blacklisted by a Network here and become useless.

    It's also impossible to unlock depending on the baseband.

    seeing this loads lately, people buy phones on donedeal or from cash4gold and then its already been blacklisted, easy money for the seller, lovely iphone shaped paperweight for the buyer.
