See Turn off Activation Lock https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201441. iPhones, iPads, and iPods are covered here.

 

If you are the original owner: If you have iOS 11 or later and your account is protected with two-factor authentication, use get help with a forgotten passcode or disabled device to recovery your passcode. Otherwise, use forgot your Apple ID or your Apple ID password to recover the needed credential(s). If you can’t recover the needed credential(s), contact Apple Support and present your original purchase receipt for your device from an authorized Apple seller with the device’s serial number on it. You’ll need a photo ID too. If you can do neither, then the device is useless to you.

 

If you acquired your device second hand, you usually will need to obtain the needed password from the person that last set it up. If you can’t obtain it, in the rare case your device came activation locked from an authorized Apple seller, then contact Apple Support and present your original purchase receipt for your device with the device’s serial number on it. You’ll need a photo ID too. If you can do neither, then the device is useless to you.

 

In both cases, you can use the suggested support options below. Alternatively, if an Apple Store is open in your area, then you can go there to deal with your problem. In this case, you can make a genius-bar appointment (https://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/) if you want.
