See if they can recover the ID/password.

For the Apple ID password, enter the Apple (iCloud) ID and click Forgot Password.

The previous owner has to log out of iCloud or go to https://www.icloud.com/find/ and erase the device, then remove it from their account. If you can’t do that, the device is useless. Apple won't unlock it.
