Hi, I'm so sorry for the your situation, the most effective way is to contact the Apple Support, maybe in-store, and confirm that's your device. Otherwise you will need to erase your iPhone:

1. If you enable Find My, you can login iCloud.com, and click Find My iPhone, erase it.
2. Notice: Please try back up on iTunes first, or if you can back up on iCloud, although your iPhone get locked.
3. If your data does matter, and cannot back up before erasing your iPhone,

getting my iphone 6 back when it says it is unavailable

There isn't a way for you or Apple to recover the data from it; this mechanism is designed to prevent people from accessing the contents of someone else's iPhone. Its owner is supposed to back it up before it becomes unavailable.

When a device becomes unavailable, the data is gone.

What is still available in iCloud will still be available, and what is available in a backup will be available.

What isn’t backed up and isn’t in iCloud, and isn’t copied elsewhere, is gone.

The only way to mark data as being valuable is with a backup. Otherwise, you’re one drop, one dunk, one ding, one fire, one theft, one loss, or one password-brute-force-attack-unavailable away from data loss.

There are a few steps you can try:

• Wait for Some Time:

After multiple incorrect passcode attempts, your iPhone may be temporarily disabled. Wait for some time, and the "iPhone Unavailable" message may disappear. Try unlocking your iPhone again.

• Connect to iTunes/Finder:

Connect your iPhone to a computer with iTunes (or Finder, if you're using macOS Catalina or later). Open iTunes/Finder and see if your device is recognized. If prompted for a passcode on the device or to "Trust This Computer," you might need to wait until the "iPhone Unavailable" message disappears.

• Force Restart:

Perform a force restart on your iPhone. For an iPhone X, XS, XS Max, or XR, press and quickly release the Volume Up button, then press and quickly release the Volume Down button. Finally, press and hold the Side button until you see the Apple logo.

• Use Recovery Mode:

If the above steps don't work, you might need to put your iPhone into Recovery Mode. Be aware that this process will erase your device if you can't authenticate it. Follow the steps provided by Apple to enter Recovery Mode and restore your iPhone: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

• Contact Apple Support:

If none of the above solutions work, it's advisable to contact Apple Support for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional guidance based on your specific situation.

Remember, it's crucial to have a backup of your iPhone data regularly to avoid data loss in situations like this. If you can access your device again, consider setting up regular backups to prevent such issues in the future.
