So I bought a MacBook pro on Craigslist and I thought it was a fully upgraded mid 2015 when I looked at it I think it must have been hacked or something because that is what it shows when I look at the about this Mac screen but when I look at system info it shows only a 2012 MBP.
About 15 sec after using the screen went black (it worked for about 15 min when I was talking to him). It still connects to a monitor or TV and I can use that but the laptop screen does not turn on. http://imgur.com/gallery/Dw0tFd4
Is there a way to tell what's on the inside without opening it up? (Apple wouldn't look at it and a repair shop wanted $100 just to open or diagnose it.)
Things I have tried so far are resetting the pram, the smc, and booting up in safe mode. So far no luck
Honestly I am super down about the whole issue and any advice on what to do would be great and would be great.
I was wanting a computer for video editing and now all my money was spent on a scam. What I am thinking is that I might need to figure out how to repair it some how and resell so I can negate some of my loss.
