Apple wallet already linked to someone else

The Apple phone wallet I purchased from Amazon is already linked to someone else. I realize I can return it but run the risk of it happening again and I need it for this weekend.

Is there ANY way to reset it without the original owner disabling it? Since that's not a possibility my only other option is to return it or just not use the location option.

If you're not able to contact the original owner to have their Apple ID removed, it may be best to return the wallet.


We hope this helps.

Have a wonderful day!
