Apple ID is diffrent from mine? Bricked iPhone

I bought a second hand iPhone 4s. When got it, some of the last owners data was still left on it, i went into settings and started changing some of it. When i got to the option about iCloud data, I typed in my e-mail and password, after all i decided to wipe the iPhone, when I wiped it i filled in the information such as the language, location and wi-fi and it asked me to log into icloud, but the email that was linked with the iPhone wasn't mine, I now cant log in 😟


Please Help, should i take it to my nearest apple store?

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.4

Oh right sorry, its a white iphone 4s alothough it was listed as iphone 4, in white, 16gb and i paid 70 for it.


$70 for an iPhone that would retail new for $550? And you admit that the person that sold it to you said they 'found' it?


Sorry, you are so in the wrong here it's not even funny. You need to turn it in to local authorities. Attempting to sell it, or sell its parts, would constitute a felony in most jurisidictions.


Cut your losses, learn from your mistake, and the next time you find a deal that's 'too good to be true', stop and think things through.
