28 char recovery key is associated with your Apple account, not your iphone.

You only need one if you are recovering your account and you must have turned it on,

Alternatively this is a used or stolen phone still activation locked to another account.

Either way, if you read the advice, without the recovery key the account cannot be recovered.

So, is this new phone a used phone?
