Hello~ Are you the original owner? If so…

If not the original owner…

That is the activation lock. If the person/persons that you bought the iPhone from cannot or will not remove it …the iPhone is basically useless to you. If they cannot/will not remove it…return it and get your money back. We cannot help remove it nor can Apple. Take a look here…

If you are not the original owner, then Activation Lock is a security feature to protect the owner from theft. In that case, only the original owner can unlock it. 🔓

If the Apple Account to which the phone is registered is the same Apple Account you are using to post to these forums, you should be able to use the ID and password for that account to unlock the phone.

P.S. - If the iPhone is displaying the "Locked to Owner" screen, that would seem to imply that the owner in question – whom you say is you – deliberately placed the phone in Lost Mode to mark the phone as lost or stolen. If that is the case; and the phone is in Lost Mode, Apple will not remove Activation Lock even if you have the original sales receipt. Only having the proper Apple Account credentials will allow unlocking the phone.

Do you not remember your account details? The ones used to set up your device when new?
