iPhone 5 iCloud Activation Lock (Apple ID Locked)
I have my grandpa's phone and I reset it, I forgot to log out from iCloud so I got into an activation lock screen and i did not know the password, I tried to guess the password many times without knowing that his Apple ID would get locked because of how many times I tried. I learned the Apple ID was locked when I later asked my dad the password which he remembered correctly but was unsure about it and then I tried it on the Activation Lock. Grandpa's Apple ID is not logged in to anywhere else than his locked iPhone 5 so I cannot view the mails that Apple has sent to his Apple ID when I want to unlock the Apple ID. No one remembers the security questions either because the security questions were made a long time ago. I have heard that all i need is to call Apple Support and have the proof of ownership (supposedly the original purchase receipt?) which is lost. Also, the iPhone does not have its original SIM Card inside so there is no answer if a security question is asking for his phone number. I hope help is recieved.
