you get a new one if you have a insurance... then you get a new one as soon as it's been reported to the police and you report it to the insurance company. The phones IMEI number is blacklisted in the EIR database (international IMEI database, the phones IMEI is checked against the database, if it's blacklisted the phone will be blocked from making any calls), and then it can't be used anywhere in the world.

it means it can't be used... when you turn on a mobile phone it always checks the IMEI number against the EIR database, if it's whitelisted it's ok to use it, if it's blacklisted (for example if the phone has been reported stolen) the phone will not be allowed access to any mobile network...

an insurance scam on behalf? sounds very stupid... if the insurance company reveal the fraud you'll have to pay probably way more than a new T68i would cost... buy it instead...
