nah... Its really not a bad one,
Depends on the kinda fone u're using, like if its an infinix hot note.. Then maybe he collected ur Imei number so he can get 2gig free from MTN just like the one I got on my line...
That's the only thing involved so...

Your network providers already know your imei number, since you are already connected to their various masts.

He with ur imei cannot affect ur physical life . The only thing he can use ur imei to do is to tweak and get free data . Unless every time he tweak and GEt 2gb it give u a headache. When he tweaks 4gb na ulcer .tweak 6gb na migraine .tweak 8gb na internal bleeding .tweak 10gb na diarrhea. 12gb na skin lesions . If he enter 20gb na EBOLA u don get be dat . If u are encountering any of these syptoms I suggest u c a certified doctor.
