No, Chris this this works I had to do this myself so I know for a fact that it will still work. I’ve actually done it several times for family members and friends
Yes, it works, but it's not Activation Lock, the original subject of this thread. If the device is asking for a four or six digit numerical code, this is a passcode, and as you say can be got past by erasing and resetting the device. If however the device is showing a screen like that shown at right, this is Activation Lock and without the required ID and password being supplied by the person who set the lock there is no way whatever of bypassing it. That was the situation the OP found himself in.

I find it funny how ppl jump to stolen device as well, as if ppl don't loose things. Be quick to say ppl should be more responsible then. I found a iphone 6, believe it or not, in a construction area, in a good hard case. I believe a construction worker lost it. It has the icloud lock on it. So now I'm pretty much gonna have to throw a new looking iphone 6s plus away. Apple did a stupid thing with this lock, they wasted money because now they will find their phone torn up for parts or in the trash. Smart move apple. Smart move.
My phone isn't stolen it somehow reset itself and now I can't unlock it

What you should do (and in some countries are required to do by law) is to take it to the police. You don't have any right to keep a found object (or destroy it). As you can't locate the owner there's nothing else you can do - the police may or may not be able to assist the owner but it becomes their problem and not yours.

If it is Activation Locked it will show a partial Apple ID. If this is yours you can use it to unlock the phone. If it isn't yours, only the person whose ID it is can unlock it - this situation arises when a phone is bought second-hand (used) and the previous owner has failed to unlock it. Only he can unlock it - there is no way at all round that and Apple cannot unlock it for you. Without his being able to do this the phone is permanently useless.
please tell me the way of contacting to the previous owner. so i could request him to turn off the activation lock. i bought it with a great difficulty. it took me like 2 years to manage the money for buying second hand iphone.
thanks,

I'm sorry, but there is no way at all of contacting the previous owner, and without his turning off the activation lock your phone is permanently useless. Whoever sold it to you it responsible for selling you a useless item and if it's possible you should contact them and demand your money back.

You purchased the phone from him so contact him however you did when you purchased the phone from him.

It's just as likely the vendor wasn't the owner who set the lock; he may have been a second-hand shop. Or a thief.
There are sellers selling icloud unlock service on ebay for $10. its official by apple and works with only wifi devices like iwatch, ipad and ipod. I dont know why apple is not selling icloud unlock service for iphones?

No, they're not official Apple anything. They're a scam. For Apple to sell iCloud unlocking would be to defeat the entire purpose of the Activation Lock, which is to make iOS devices a less attractive target of the.
