It sounds like the phone is Activation Locked.


Activation Lock is an anti-theft measure designed to make stolen and lost phones useless to thieves and to anyone they might sell phones to. We cannot remove it for you. Apple will not remove it – except in very narrow cases. I.e., you are the original purchaser, and have proof that is convincing to Apple.
