If the number is not the same, you need to contact Apple directly.

You will not be able to bypass the activation lock without proving ownership of the account or providing the original proof of purchase for the device.


Edit. Sorry. Not sure what I was thinking. You do want to contact Apple, though. Otherwise, you will have to create a new account and you will lose access to all of the apps and data tied to the original account.
