Hello lalindra274!


You cannot unlock it. Only the original owner can unlock it. Please

try to get a refund, or have the original owner properly prepare it for reselling, as explained here: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


This wonderful User Tip is also worth a read: The All Too Common SAD Reality of Buying … - Apple Community.


In fact, you should read the above User Tip. Don’t go to bed until you have!


I hope this is helpful. Good Luck!

You've been scammed.


Take this as a learning experience:

The next time you purchase an Appledevice, then make sure that you can log into it. For an iPad, have the original user use this site: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support. They should have known better.


Login Prior to Buying:

Request that you are able to log into it, and assign it to your account, prior to handing over the money. If the seller decides to disabide by those rules you've set fourth, then do not proceed with the transaction.
