forgot icloud id

I tested something with my old Iphone 6 a long time ago and created a new icloud id which I forgot. I know want to use it again for some project but now its linked to an account I don't remember.

Any idea's?

Then contact Apple's account security team. They can remove the activation lock from the device if you can provide the original proof of purchase in your name.

Yes I already tried the usual supects but thats not working for me because I don’t have a any clue of which icloud ID I used.

I can can proof it’s my phone, I bought it at the Apple webshop. But none of the normal channels are working for me.

It’s a bit unreal not be able to use my own device. I spent a fortune on apple products and I love them, but now the security measures (which I like) are working against me.

And yes it was stupid not to remember my credentials. But I try to go from here.
