Don’t know Apple ID or password for old iPod

I am trying to get into my old iPod touch. My parents made a fake email for the Apple ID. My iPod automatically updated and I have to sign in to my Apple ID to get in but I don’t know my Apple ID or my password. Is there a way to reset both from a new device

iPod Touch (3rd Gen)

Hello,


The iPod touch is locked with Activation Lock. There is no way around unlocking Activation Lock without inserting the device’s associated Apple ID. If this is not an option you will have to find the original receipt for the device that clearly shows the serial number. Once you have this document you can have Apple unlock your iPod touch.
