Verizon phones are all unlocked. 

insert the the new SIM card and restore to factory with iTunes.

if the phone is not blacklisted, it will say itis unlocked.

( find my iPhone has to be turned off so you can activate with iTunes and your account.)

Verizon iPhones 5 and above are all unlocked when bought. 

To get this message:

1) it is not really a Verizon iphone

2) the SIM card is defective

3) the phone is reported lost, stolen, or contract terms not completed and the phone is black listed.
