Hello ariffinpeer,


We see that you're having some trouble with your iPhone. We'll be happy to assist in any way that we can!


Are you seeing a message that says "Activation Lock"? If so, the steps in here can help: How to remove Activation Lock


If the original owner no longer has access to a trusted device, the steps in here can help: Two-factor authentication for Apple ID


Specifically, you'll want to check the "What if I can't access a trusted device or didn't receive a verification code?" section of that article.


Cheers!
