Question about Droid A956

Hey, I'm new on here, and the main reason I joined is to ask this question. I just recently (3 saturdays ago) bought a Motorola Droid A956 from the flea market for $150. great condition, no scratches, no wear, perfect looking phone. problem is when I went to activate it on my Verizon account they told me it had been reported stolen. My question is, what can I possibly do to activate this thing so that I dont lose all my money? I went back to that flea market 2 times to try to get my money back from the vendor who sold it to me, and hes disappeared like Kriss Angel or some crap, surprise surprise. I should have known better, but now im just trying to not lose all my money on this thing. Can I buy a damaged one on Ebay and is there some chip I can change out to get it activated or something? theres gotta be something I can do to activate this phone right? or should I just go ahead and throw it in the nearest dumpster?

Unfortunately there is nothing you can do. If the ESN is reported stolen the only way the phone can be used again is if the original owner reports it found.
