Hi everyone i bought a phone from a complete stranger to me. The iphone says that there is activation lock and also find my iphone is on. the only document i have is that i made the person an online transaction through my bank and nothing else. May i know if apple can unlock the device for me. I am basically a student. Can someone tell me what can be done.
If you are the owner or the owner has shared all information with you then to open Activation Lock:- If it is Activation locked, read here --> Turn off Activation Lock - Apple Support Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
If you are not the owner and do not have the Apple ID and Password then there is no way that you can get into this iPhone unless the original owner shares the Apple ID and password with you. If you are lucky you can get into this iPhone if they (owner) accidentally remove the device from their apple ID.

So with the online transaction receipt can i ask apple to unlock it for me.
I doubt Apple will help.
So it like the phone is just a waste now
You'll never get into it.
Turn it in to a recycle center.
