Apple: iMessage Bug is Not a Bug; Employee Did Not Follow Correct Procedure
Back in December, we reported about a bug in iOS 5, which caused stolen iPhones to receive iMessages that were meant for the original owner, despite taking measures like remote wiping or changing Apple ID passwords.
That issue got more visibility earlier in the week when Gizmodo reported that an iPhone user who had taken his iPhone to Apple Genius bar to fix an issue, started receiving every incoming and outgoing iMessage meant for an Apple employee who had helped in fixing his problem.

Similar thing happened to my nephew an employee in the 3 network shop popped in his sim to make sure his 4s was unlocked before he would provide him with a sim.Later on when I am texting him the 3 employee is texting me back with a number I didnt know asking who is this?Turns out when I phone nephew the strange number was logged in his phone in facetime settings a re-toggle of facetime and imessage cured it

Whats the problem to fix that? Save somewhere the ID from the SIM-card. After every reboot or if even if you change the SIM-Card without reboot, when it connects to the cellular network, check if the ID is the same and if not deactivate automatically iMessage.... or I am wrong?

I don't see how this ISN'T a bug

that happend to me when i inserted a new sim, i resolved it deactivating imessage and activating again until my new number reflected on the imessage setting menu.

It seems 'simple' is what escapes Apple the most.
