Interesting, this was 2014, perhaps clerk did it to save me money for device registration.

Now I just use my EU data plan, it has enough data for short stays.

That's probably it. Instead of you paying this ridiculous registration fee, the clerk probably offered you a cloned Turkish IMEI. That's another popular workaround!
