The website they refer you to will not provide you with information about your phone being locked or unlocked. It will just give you an error message. All they want is for you to sign up and get your email address. FRAUD!!!

Yep, they got my Email and my Facebook. I clicked the check simlock and warrenty button. I did it twice and got this resault back. "Error: Unexpected error, please try again later". they only allow for one check per day so later would be the next day. SCAM!

Actually, I got that message on 2 phones that I've been using with Straight Talk, and that had been "unlocked" using an eBay unlocker... When I put in my Factory Unlocked AT&T phone IMEI, it actually gave me real info on the phone...

Yeah, fuck you --you probably build the site

After u signed in u can see your iphone status, it cost u an email address!!!

all i get is error messages. FAKE

FRAUD!!! don't pay

I'm having the same situation. I registered my email address, but when I check for unlock status, I always get "Unexpected error, please try again later." Seems scammy.
