Activation lock is a security protocol that can't be bypassed. Only the person it is locked to can unlock it, and it sounds like the person gave you a stolen phone as it is in most cases when the person "can't remember" their log in credentials.


If you bought this from someone and it came locked, try to get your money back, you will never be able to use the phone.
