iCloud locked iPhone 7 Plus

I bought a used iphone 7plus from a flea market in Oakland. Took it home, charged it, tried to activate it, and found out it's owner locked. What can I do? I have no idea who the previous owner is and ver irritated because I paid $200 for this phone and can't return it.

If you lost your iPhone 7 Plus, and you had Find My turned on, you can make a request to put it into Lost mode. You can do that from the Web interface https://www.icloud.com/find/ or from other Apple devices linked to the same Apple ID account.

If you are asking how to bypass Activation Lock on an iPhone 7 Plus that you found, that is locked to some other person whom you have no way of contacting, you can't.
