Only the person who set up find my iPhone and activation lock will know the password to disable it. If you cannot contact them to do that, then there is nothing you can do. Apple will not help you with that, since you are not the original owner.


All you can do is drop the phone off at a recycling center as you will never be able to activate and use it.
