can't imagine why anyone would bother but I've seen fake knock-off ipods. That is fake fake ipods. Not just ripoffs but ripoffs of ripoffs. Incredible.
RIM is the company who makes blackberry. Blackberry must use RIM servers to work. So when they block your pin your phone doesn't work for data. You can change the pin but when RIM checks to see if it is a valid pin and it is not they will block it. That is probably what happened to yours. Your only hope is to get your money back. I don't know the laws in your country for this. Sorry.

Since you bought from a complete 3rd party company who sold you a refurb device with an invalid pin, no one is going to support this. At this time your best fight is to go back to the place you purchased from and see if they can accomodate.
These could very well be real devices, but most likely have been deactivated for whatever reason and someone flashed a new PIN into them. They will work for a limited time but eventually RIM will ban them.
This is an important reminder why you shouldn't publicly post your PIN, sooner or later someone will harvest valid PINs and start using those.
