The previous owner needs to go to https://www.icloud.com/find/ and erase the device, then remove it from their account. If they won't do that, the device is useless. Apple won't unlock it.

Ask the seller to remove the lock or give you a refund. It's an anti-theft measure.
That iPhone was likely cheap because the seller wasn't able to use it; in this case, you won't be able to use it either. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
