Apple id blocked

Hello, this happened to me. I went to someone else's Apple ID because they asked me to get a term paper from the archive, but as it turned out, the scammer wrote and blocked my phone and turned on the loss of the iPhone, could you help and delete his Apple ID? I have all receipts and box of purchase. Primary Apple ID upon activation was: ****@****.com

Apple ID of the scammer: ****@***.com

Device: iphone 12 blue 1

Apple can completely reset a device if a person can provide sufficient evidence of valid ownership. Do this online at: Activation Lock support request - https://al-support.apple.com/#/additional-support Apple says, "Proof of ownership documentation is required," but does not state what currently constitutes proof. Prior to this new online service Apple typically required the original receipt issued by Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller and documented provenance (so typically it would be the original owner who does this, or a descendant with legal proof of ownership).
