Has the previous owner tried : If you forgot your Apple ID - Apple Support ?


Or, and if you he/she the original purchaser of the phone (i.e. they didn't buy it used), he/she could try going to an Apple Store (he/she should a Genius Bar appointment if they do) or try contacting iTunes Support online (https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html) and see if they can remove the phone from the account - they are likely to want to see proof of ownership before they might help e.g. original receipt with the serial number on it

No, only the account that it's locked to can reactivate it.
