You can try and contact Ring CS, but if you don't have proof of sale then I'm not sure they'll help. They might be able to contact the other person as well to verify and then they could do it, but your best bet is to get them to remove the devices from their account first.

@plow864 as long as someone removes the devices from their app you can install them. Deleting the app doesn’t release the devices. So great that you can add them now!

@exercitation2948 yea I think they thought that's so they had to do the first time. And so when I tried to add them to my account it was still in there name so this time they got it right and went back on the app and removed the devices and I that was all they had to do. It was some ppl I don't know so I thought I got scammed or I wouldn't hear back from them. But they were honorable and so what they said they would do. Now I have to pay the extra annual subscription fee cause I'm adding more cameras to my ring account.
