unlock apple id

I restarted my iphone and it asked me log back into my apple id, which I did. then I got a message that said I've been locked out of my apple id. I can't unlock it because I don't know the security questions and the email account is I used is fake (I hate how apple is always fishing for personal info). do apple ids stay locked forever?

If you don't know the answers, if the steps in the article below don’t work, contact Apple ID Support, although based on multiple posts I have read, they will not help you recover the answers to your security questions.
