I have a really sticky situation here. First of all, we live in Florida.
This is an AMAZINGLY long story, but I will try and keep it to the necessary details.
My boyfriend's ex girlfriend bought him a phone from Verizon last June. He was on her plan, but wasn't allowed to have access. They broke up in July and he kept the phone. She never said anything about wanting the phone back or anything along those lines. He stayed on her plan and payed around $100/month every month until December 2, 2006 when the phone was shut off. The reason teh service was cancelled was because we thought it was a dumb idea to take this angry psychotic ex-girlfriend's word for it that his actual part of the bill was $85. (This is with him having no text messaging and the lowest minutes available...doesn't add up quite right, does it?) So he asked her to put him on the account so that he could actually have proof of how much he was paying and to make sure that it was the right amount. Well, she didn't want to put him on the account (which looks REALLY interesting...) but said she would send a bill (which she never did). Well, we have a text from her that day that says, "let me kno whats going on. r u gonna actually pay ur bill n keep the phone or what" (verbatim). I have a picture of the text as proof. The phone was shut off after a bunch of b.s. back and forth for 6 hours, but she still had my number, so she could contact us.
Well, my boyfriend and I have had this phone for 6 months and we aren't using it, so we figured we would sell it to get some extra cash and get rid of a bad memory. Well, she found my account on Ebay and saw that I was selling the phone. I sent the phone off and I got an e-mail today from the recipient and she said, "I received the phone today. However, when I called to activate it I was told that there was a police report out for the phone and I was unable to activate it. I need you to either figure out what's going on with the phone or I am to get my money back ASAP and the phone will be sent in the mail as soon as my money is received. Thanks."
Now that I explained the situation, what should we even do about this? I didn't even know that this sort of thing could happen. We plan on going to Verizon and then to the police department (because his ex-girlfriend live in St. Petersburg). Will we get arrested if we go to the police department? What shoudl we do in regards to getting the police report to be lifted? We have proof that he payed part of the bill and this phone was a gift. Also, that text message specifically asks him if he's going to keep the phone. I can't believe that she's actually doing this. She just had a child as well and believe that my boyfriend is the father and instead of coming after him for child support, she comes after him for a phone?!?!? Who does this kind of stuff? I'm not concerned about the money, becuase we don't need it, but I cam concerned abotu their being a warrant or something.
PLEASE HELP!
