You've been Scammed:

Seems you've been scammed. So if you cannot contact the seller, then you are out of luck. If purchased off of a Web site, then contact the web site, seeing if the sell can be held accountable, and if you can get your money back.

Learn from this:

The next time you go about purchasing and item, request that the seller unlocks it, and signs out of iCloud on it.
