My Apple ID got disabled for security reasons (I locked myself out of my phone because I forgot the password) and now it's asking me to reset my password. I go to the iForgot page and now it's asking for a phone number nobody has anymore. What should I do? If I can't reset the password my iPhone is bricked for life.
Any help is appreciated
