Hello ahsanw678,


If you purchased a used device and it is Activation Locked, you'll need to contact the original owner. They're the only ones that can remove the account from the device.


How to remove Activation Lock


Cheers!

As you’re here and not discussing this with the seller, you likely got scammed.

The iPhone will never be useful to you. We can’t help, and—absent proof of ownership you likely don’t have—Apple won’t.
