Need imei, i have phone but its not setup cant use #06..on dialer as emgency calls only

[Android Central Question]

I have Alcatel u3 running 7.0 and it is on hello screen. I would like to know how to see imei? Can I see from the menu hidden like recovery/download/safe mode or somehow as emergency calls can only be made as not set up. I am to check this as I won't buy if stolen imei or blocked.

It's sometimes inside the phone, under the battery perhaps.

Welcome to Android Central! The seller can't tell you what the IMEI is? If not, I wouldn't buy it -- that sounds shady to me.
