Had this happen awhile back. It is related to the knew Find My iPhone feature on the iPhone 5 (which I'm assuming you have). Call Apple is all I can tell you. You need to turn off Find My iPhone to restore, but the security features of Find My iPhone don't allow you to turn it off. Therefore, you can't restore the phone. It's a loop with no apparent solution. Sorry.
