remove icloud with original box?

hi, i just purchased a iphone from ebay with a broke screen, the seller said they do not remember what the password is for the icloud. the phone is not locked or blocked. but i would like to sign out of the icloud account as i wish to put my own on it.

i have the phones original box and the serial numbers match up with the phone. can i use this as proof of ownership in a apple store to remove the icloud account for me?

iPhone 5s, iOS 8

You can try, but having the box is no more proof of ownership for you than it is for the seller, who "cannot remember" his iCloud password. Does the fact that this person "cannot remember" the password not set off the tiniest alarm in your head?
