More than likely the person sold you the phone then reported it stolen to get another phone and service provider has blocked the phone.

So is there anything I can do about it or is it useless..?

If the person done this it useless and will never get service again.

If you could get hold of the person again.

So if I get a hold of them can they take it off the blacklist or is there no possible way to get it off

Yes they will have to call there service provider and say that they found it again and hopefully it should be sorted
