I have exhausted my efforts. Bought the phone put my sim card in. Received a call so I thought everything was good. The guy who sold it to me lives 5 hours away so trying to link up with him looks like impossible. Took it to my local phone shop. They kept it three days then told me "sorry, we can't do our job"
Any suggestions or referrals?
Much appreciated

bypassing FRP is kind of frowned upon here in AF:
FRP (Factory Reset Protection) - Android Lounge | Android Forums

can you call the guy? all you need is the original email and password that was setup for google account. once you input that info, you are good to go. you can do a factory reset in the phone's settings and it will not trip FRP then you can take it in to your phone carrier.

Is this really something that was their 'job' to do? Unless that shop does indeed advertise they provide breaking things like FRP and similar security measures as a service they can provide this sounds more like they unsuccessfully tried some cursory things to gain access but stopped to prevent the phone from wiping itself. Otherwise, FRP is doing just what it was designed to do, prevent unauthorized access to the phone's existing contents.
Return this phone and get your money back if possible. Since the owner implemented FRP and didn't clear it before dumping the phone, there's no way to determine what else was done to it. You're going to be spending a lot of effort just getting this phone in a safe and secure state again, it might be best to just get a new phone where you setting it up is more seamless and hassle-free.
