It is probably fake, but if my wife wanted to check the call history and suddenly the phone gets broken, she would get more suspicious than a just “It’s not powering on anymore”

Lol for real, if you can open the phone to put the note in, you could easily just factory reset it and smash or zap a few things before shipping it, or like be a real fucking human being and be honest with your wife

He probably broke it in a rush, and then put the note in later.

Also she's could jet get the call records from their provider.

Not if she's not on the account.

this is fake and has been reposted in reddit way too many times.

does anyone think things like this are true? I assume they are all staged.

It’s clearly fake because that’s not how the display comes off the device when you do this repair. You lift it from the top and keep the display cables connected, and only disconnect the battery cables.
