How do I know if my iPhone is genuine?

I think I may have been sold a fake iPhone but not sure

Hi diew128,

Welcome to the Apple Community.

Re: How do I know if my iPhone is genuine?

You might want to begin by checking the serial number of your phone:

Check Your Service and Support Coverage - Apple Support

You can see whether or not you get an error message.

If so, it may be fake or stolen.

All the best :-)
