If it was not disclosed in the sale that it was activation locked or iCloud locked, return it and get your money back. If the seller will not refund your money, file a claim with ebay under their buyer protection policy.


If it was disclosed, you unfortunately got exactly what you paid for... an unusable phone.


There is no way to bypass the activation lock.
