So I bought the S6 on eBay for $250 or something like that and now I'm worried ;_;

Well I got my friend to buy it for me and he's gonna bring it to my country when he comes in a few days and I'll pay him back.

So he sent me some pics.

First thing I noticed is the interface.. it looks weird compared to what the S6 interface looks like..
The icons look like the ones the S7 has and the Text doesnt have that drop shadow image.
Does that mean its fake? It came with Android 5.0

He upgraded it to 6.0 but still no drop shadow.
I told him to double tab the home button to see if the camera comes up and he said it did..

These are the pictures he sent me:

He said the phone is a Verizon phone.. Does that mean its real?
The eBay listing said "The phones were a Verizon display or excess inventory..."

I do not believe it is fake based on anything evident in the photos. The icons and text could be the result of a theme. Since you have the ESN, you can call Verizon and have them verify if it's good or not.

I checked the ESN online and it passed ._.
And okay :3
I hope its a theme thing T_T
You've put my mind to ease a bit xD
 
If it for some reason doesn't meet your satisfaction, if you purchased through PayPal it's pretty easy to get Ebay and/or PayPal to refund your money, should it turn out to be a fake or stolen, etc.
 
Just got it.. Its real and its perfect <3
Does anyone know how to get the dropshadow on the text? >_<
