The responsible thing to do would be to contact the police.Any suggestions lol.
Get your money back.For school I bought a laptop on Facebook. I just now turned it on and it said that there is a bitlocker and there is a admin password on bios where I can not even reset the computer.
I don't know if I can return the laptop. Is there anything that I could do?
They would not respond anymore. Any recommendations on what I could do?Get your money back.
A FB person selling something where the drive is BitLocker and a BIOS password...very possibly that is a stolen item.
Don't go through ANY machinations trying to get around that...get your money back.
Never ever buy a PC/laptop/tablet, without turning it on.
For ANY second hand system, you personally need to do a full wipe and reinstall after the money changes hands.
But since this one has a BIOS password, don't even bother.

Would I get in trouble for turning it in to the police? I didn't know that the laptop may be stolen but would that still make me in trouble?The responsible thing to do would be to contact the police.
Well, it might.Would I get in trouble for turning it in to the police? I didn't know that the laptop may be stolen but would that still make me in trouble?
You are unlikely to get into trouble for having to police check it out. You are more likely to get into trouble selling parts from a stole laptop.Would I get in trouble for turning it in to the police? I didn't know that the laptop may be stolen but would that still make me in trouble?
