Verizon was ordering I-phones from headquarters and wasn't getting them, UPS checked and said that it appeared that the packages were
being held up because of damaged packing materials. UPS has a dept that looks at a damaged box, repacks into another box
and sends box on its way. Verizon then looked on its system and some of the phones that were unaccounted for were active ,
turned on, and being used. PD set up survellience in the local UPS building and watched this guy opening boxes, taking out phones, and
then put them in 2 other boxes, one addressed to a house where this guy used to live. They then followed the guy who drove up to his old
residence and got the box off the front porch.
There has been over 150 thousand in missing phones, the repack guy at UPS couldn't turn on or program a new phone so who was helping?
Scoops Calvin on the prowl.

You don't need anything but an active SIM for a Verizon iPhone. All Verizon smartphones with LTE are unlocked for all carriers and white-listed for Verizon.
It was part of their agreement with FCC to acquire 700 Mhz spectrum for LTE. Not sure what this means from February, though:

Still part of a scheme doomed to certain failure because, uh, you know, the way cell phones work, and schitt.
