I am getting this notification this device will be locked in 24 hours as it has been reported lost, stolen or undelivered by the purchaser. You should contact seller to resolve this matter.

This is a phone from my insurance company 😐 anyway know why this might be happening?

I'm getting the same thing. I couldn't say why it is happening in particular, but in the morning I will be contacting Samsung to see what, if anything, they can do about it. I will give an update once this is done. Perhaps it is an error on their end. I hope it is. I'd also back everything you can up on your sim card by going on your settings, and backing up on Google, in case you are locked out of your phone, and need to use your sim on another one.

Yha, I hope it is an error like that. I got everything on this.

i've tried doing that and also tried holding in the unlock button and volume down key together for 15sec as it does the same and nothing has happened, The message is still appearing on my phone.

Hi everyone, I just spoke to Samsung, and they told me they are receiving many calls regarding this, After talking to a manager, she told me they are looking into this. Apparently, it's just a notification that has nothing to worry about. 😟 who else thing Samsung is hacked 🫥🫥🫥
