I'm thinking of paying to have my iPhone 6 unlocked. However, the unlocking sites engage in a bit of price-discrimination, where they'll unlock a 3Gs for $29, a 6 for $69, and prices in-between for intermediate models. So, I was wondering: what would happen if I told them it was an iPhone 3Gs, but gave them my iPhone 6's IMEI. I suspect that, no matter what the model, the IMEI just gets put into the "unlocked" list, and that's that. Has anybody actually tried unlocking their phone while mis-reporting the model number?
