I bought an iphone 7 through a carousell seller, i asked for the receipt and it was given. Before purchasing i did not know “telco sets” existed and people can scam you with them. I should have known earlier.. i’ve been using this phone for 9 months prior to being bought with no problems until recently it showed me no service. Took it into the apple service center and they told me it(my imei) was blocked by telco and went to Maxis Service Center and they told me the owner had an outstanding payment.I tried contacting them but failed of course.. I have their receipt with their personal details.. I was then advised to make a police report. Honestly would a police report help me in my case ? I have plenty of screenshots/evidence and a witness that he sold it to me. I read an old post here about a guy with the same situation as i have, and was also told to make a police report and show it to maxis so that they can unblock their phone.. Not sure if it would work cause the guy did not update sigh. I just wanna know what can i do to unblock my imei :\ besides the illegal way of course (which temporarily works)

No no thats not what i meant, i asked whether or not if I can unblock it without doing anything illegally, relax.
