How do I run an Apple serial number lookup?
Enter the serial number into the check form on the website or send it to the @ispyware_bot Telegram bot. The service identifies the model, color, storage, production date, warranty and activation status, and the extended report adds FMI, MDM and blacklist status.
What if the serial number is not found?
Check for typos first: Apple serial numbers never contain the letters O and I, only the digits 0 and 1. If the number is correct but not found, the device may be counterfeit or have a replaced board. Cross-check the same device by IMEI to be sure.
