It sounds like it hasn't been reset to factory settings. To do this, you will need the password, so you'll have to ask they guy you bought it from.0

How well do you know this guy? If he sold you a phone that is locked with a password, I'm thinking this is someone elses iphone and they have used mobileme to lock their phone remotely.It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.0

You could also ask apple to check the serial number on the phone-see if that brings anything up?0 -
£100 for an iPhone does seem cheap, but hopefully the password is just an oversight and a reset to factory settings will make it like new.
Is it asking for a password or a 4-digit code?0
