Every mobile device has a unique IMEI number — an identifier that ensures its legitimacy and tracks its service history. Performing an IMEI check before buying or selling a phone helps you verify if the device is genuine, not blacklisted, and free from previous theft reports or carrier locks. This simple check protects you from fraud, potential legal issues, and wasted expenses.
