My info on IMEI blacklisting is probably out of date, but it used to be that different regions operated their own lists (since phones were normally sold for a specific region).
That meant that stolen phones would often just get shipped abroad, even with a bar in place for the UK.
Even if they’re blocked I think that only applies to certain countries too. So they likely just get sent abroad and used there!
