How to recover access to my blocked iCloud account?

I’m a student, I was looking on the Internet for help with exams, in the end I found a person, paid, they gave me a third-party iCloud and told me to go in that there would be coursework there. I logged in, after which the person purposefully blocked the account and demanded money, otherwise he wouldn’t unblock it. box, receipt, phone, everything is there. How can I get access back?

The only thing you actually mention is an account. You don't say anything about an iPhone.

If the "it" you refer to is an iPhone, iPad, or a Mac, Apple can completely reset a device if a person can provide sufficient evidence of valid ownership. Check the requirements and steps at: Activation Lock support request - https://al-support.apple.com/#/additional-support Apple says, "Proof of ownership documentation is required," but does not detail what currently constitutes proof other than it “must include the product serial number, IMEI or MEID.” Apple may typically require the original receipt* issued by Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller. If Apple resets the device this will give you access to the device but won't restore access to the account used to lock it. There is nothing that can be done to expedite an Activation Lock request.
