    Nothing you can do - Activation ID which you have come up against is a device to prevent theft.  If this has happened, there you were probably sold a stolen phone in the first place and there is nothing you can do.

     

    Take the phone back and ask for a refund.  You will now never be able to use this phone again.

     

    Cut your losses and start again and go and purchase an iPhone from a legitimate source - you may need to travel to another country to do this, as I don't think iPhones are legally available in KSA.
