C. Contact Apple Support:

Contact Apple Support, asking them to assist you with logging in to this account. The Apple ID would be an eMail address. Perform a trail & error login session with the Apple Rep, while on the phone with them, prior to ending the call. If need be, perform a screensharing session with them, so they can see this firsthand, form your perspective.
