As others pointed out, most likely stolen, although one legitimate case would be computers from a bankruptcy where the IT department was laid off and did not wipe the machines.
It would be good for Apple to have a bounty program to take the machines back and reunite them with the owner, possibly paying a reward to the finder. If the finder is the thief, they'd be taking a big risk of being fingered and arrested.

- scohesc 4y agoYou'd be surprised at the amount of companies that cheap out on MDM solutions - it's easier to keep track of a bunch of outlook icloud accounts than it is to get a mac and set up MDM to some companies. Not saying it's right, but it's been done before - likely because you have an IT department that's exclusively Windows-based and you have a creative department that wants all Apple products... Either ignorance, cheapness, or unwillingness to learn.
