Here is how the owner can release the lock:
Before you buy, sell, give away, or trade in - Apple Support
For password recovery:
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

How to use account recovery when you can’t reset your Apple ID password - Apple Support
Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security - Apple Support
If the owner does not know and cannot recover their password and lacks original receipts, you will want to request a refund. Otherwise, recycle it, as it’ll never be useful to you without the owner releasing that lock.

They should be able to turn off Activation Lock remotely. As far as I know Apple doesn’t support you unless you have proof of purchase. At least that was the case when I worked at Apple.
