I bought a Macbook off of someone a while ago, recently went to sell it so reset it and now it's stuck in internet recovery because the Apple ID us locked to the previous owners account..
Apples told me there's nothing I can do and it sucks so much, so much money down the drain "/

The previous owner should have done this before transferring the Mac to you:
What to do before you sell, give away, trade in, or recycle your Mac - Apple Support
If you can get in touch with the seller, and get the Mac unlocked, you should carry out these steps before selling it to someone else.
If you can't find the seller, see:
The All Too Common SAD Reality of Buying a Used iPad/iPhone – Apple Community
A lot of the points in there apply to Macs that support Activation Lock, too.
Can I take MacBook out of recovery mode? Apple ID is locked.
