For factory resetting, refer to - Erase iPod touch - Apple Support


If you have purchased the iPod from a reseller, try to get in touch with them.


Unless the original owner has marked the device as lost with a contact message on the iPod, or their contact is on their Medical ID (on the Lock screen, tap Emergency > Medical ID), there is no way to contact the owner.
