It is possible to fake a Blackberry PIN. There is bootleg software that will let you alter the PINs to activate a stolen Blackberry online. If that is the case, however, ESN probably won't match the sticker either.
My guess is that the PIN is still locked to someone else's account or has been blacklisted.

This is entirely true, although I've never seen a phone close enough to resemble a berry. You could try to return it to the seller. You can file a paypal claim for "not as described".
However, calling the above number is the best place to start
