John Olinda Bought a Google Pixel and had it waiting for me in the United States when I arrived. Booted it up to discover the previous owner hadn't erased his account before resetting, which enabled the Forced Reset Protection. Guess I'll be returning that...

👽 Paul Webb Good grief!

John Olinda Well, the good news is that there's a way to override it with his credentials, so we will see tonight if it works. 2FA to the rescue, we hope.

😀 Tom Did you buy it new, used, or refurbished?

John Olinda Used, in mint condition. Everything is working great now, so that's a win for everyone.
