Hello,
I'm on vacation in Turkey right now and bought a SIM-card with a dataplan from Avea, without a contract.
Have been using it for about a week, and today I got this message:
864xxxxxxxxxxxxxx IMEI No'lu cihaz kayit disi oldugu icin 28/09/2015 tarihinde kullanim disi kalacaktir. Lutfen satin aldiginiz yere basvurunuz.
Which according to Google translate means:
No. unregistered IMEI 864xxxxxxxxxxxxxx device that is on the outskirts of use will remain on 28/09/2015 . Please contact the place of purchase, please .
Isn't this very strange? I can confirm that the IMEI number in the text is the same as in my phone.
I'm from Sweden, and never had any issue of this kind before.
So I googled a bit and it seems the Turks are getting it every now and then, and they're talking about cloned IMEI's and such.
Should I be worried?
