If you bought your Mac "used" and it's asking you for a password you don't know because you did not specify one when you initially set it up, then it was not properly prepared for sale. Read and follow What to do before you sell, give away, or give away your Mac.
Since the seller was apparently remiss in that task, you will need to begin with Step 6. After it finishes, it will present the usual "new Mac setup" procedure that will ask for your existing Apple ID credentials, and everything will work the way it's supposed to work.
