This is a public user to user only forum. It's most unwise to post details such as IMEI number. I have asked the forum hosts to remove the personal information.


What you do, is give the phone back and get your money back if you paid for it. You cannot bypass Activation Lock and you are not the original buyer. Since whoever you purchased the iPhone from does not have the original purchase receipt, Apple won't help him either.


Provide the following links to the seller and if he is successful, the phone can be prepared properly for you to use. If he can't, it's a useless brick, which you'll never be able to use:


If you forgot your Apple ID email address or phone number - Apple Support

If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support


Again, if the seller is unsuccessful, get your money back.
