Activation Lock is used to prevent theft by making the device unusable without the information that only the original owner would know. There is no way to look up the Apple ID, but Apple does offer some tips that may help find it.

If they are able to figure out the Apple ID email that was used, then they can use Account Recovery to reset the password.
