I am looking to purchase an unlocked phone, Motorola Razr Maxx XT1090M, and use it on the Verizon prepaid line, do you think that will work?

I am on the Verizon prepaid, using an older Verizon Razr Maxx that I had on the contract service. The prepaid folks activated the old SIM card in the phone and I have 4G data, I just want to update to a newer phone that is being sold on eBay as unlocked, I have heard that some of these phones data plans may not work due to being other than Verizon service in their previous life.

I went to a Verizon store - the told me only a prior Verizon phone that is unlocked will work on the prepaid account, I guess that means only a CDMA will work
