There is some internal tool that rewrites the serial number and apparently nobody ever overwrote the serial number on the removed unit.&lt;p&gt;So anyway, there&amp;#x27;s two legitimate MBPs out there with the same serial number, although ours is probably decommissioned by now (I believe it was a 2015).&lt;p&gt;Was a funny journey figuring out what the hell was going on, though.</text></comment>

I booted the new unit up and was prompted to enroll the device in MDM for a school district in Florida. Kind of a frustrating experience, but Apple support was eventually able to get it unenrolled after enough escalations (&amp;quot;yes, I bought it from you&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;no, I&amp;#x27;m not going to sign in to an MDM-enrolled device with my personal Apple ID&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;no, I&amp;#x27;ve never heard of this school district and don&amp;#x27;t know anyone in IT there who could unenroll the device&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;yes, I&amp;#x27;m quite sure I didn&amp;#x27;t buy it off a truck&amp;quot;).&lt;p&gt;I never learned what caused the issue.</text></comment>
