Jailbroken devices cannot use the "Erase All Content and Settings" option.

It just gets stuck on boot. Typical of all Jailbroken devices.

The only way to restore us to restore in iTunes.
 
Ok, so i got it to restore. took it to verizon, they said its on the stolen list.....

Did they take it away or anything? Now i'm nervous to take my iPhone I bought off Craigslist to the store.
 
That's definitely a bummer!! :-( Any chances on getting your $$ back from the seller?

Bought off Craigslist, doubt it. Chalk it
Up as a loss and next time only buy used phones off a secured site like eBay that offers Buyers Protection.
