Your phone is useless brick without this id.

You need to contact the seller and ask him to remove this iPhone from his list of devices. Otherwise, your iPhone will be a useless brick.

You can try to recover the Apple ID at FORGOT APPLE ID. The person whose ID is signed in would need to go to that link, and try to recover the ID, then answer their Security Questions. If they don't know the answers to the Security Questions they can contact Apple Support to have them reset:


ACCOUNT SECURITY CONTACT


But only the person whose ID is signed on can do this.


Best of luck,
