How did you buy it? From the owner itself or a website?

Unless the previous owner is willing to give you that info, you're kind of stuck.

You have a very cool and decorative paperweight, but it will never work as a phone. You have been scammed. There is no known way to remove the previous owner's lock-down except to have the previous owner release it. Do you have any way to return the device for a refund? Or hopefully Paypal buyer protection?
