If the seller is the original owner, have them contact Apple. Apple can remove the ID  if provided the required paperwork to include the original purchase receipt with the serial number on it. 


Request additional support for unlocking your device.    -


If they can't/won't do that, the phone is worthless. Ask for a refund.
