    Let me get this straight. You sold someone a phone, then reported it as lost?

    That's fraud! Maybe not against the buyer, but against your cell phone carrier.

    If I were him I'd report it to the police. Expect a visit from them.

    What can he do? Anything he wants. He has your address, but I'll bet you don't have his, and don't much about him at all.
    Start wondering about every little flat tire and ding and strange noise and broken window and hack on your computer...

    Depending on how busy your police and his police are, they might (hopefully) start investigating your past sales of phones for fraud like this.
    Give him his money back, if you have half a brain.

    Life is just so unfair - you sell someone a phone report it as stolen, they can't use it and they get upset. Go figure.

    And then you post on a public board that this is not the first time you've pulled this scam.

    I'd stand next to the door with my toothbrush because I think where you're going they may not provide one.
