Trading in a locked iPhone

If a relative gives me an iPhone, but they cannot remember the password so the phone is locked, can I trade it in to purchase a new iPhone?

iPhone 13

Unlock iPhone 6 I was given an iPhone 6 by my brother to use for my elderly mother. It was my nephews when he was on his moms plan. He has a new phone and said we could use this one. The phone is locked and he has forgotten his ApplelD info because it’s been a while since he has used it. How do I bypass this?

Hello~ No…otherwise stolen and activation locked iPhones could be traded in. Have them take a look here…

If you forgot your iPhone passcode, use your Mac or PC to reset it - Apple Support
