Is there anyway to bypass activation lock on MacBook Pro 15" 2018 model?

[lovecd]

Check it on YouTube, and found there are two software (needs payment) claimed can bypass it, one is called "ifast22", and the other is from "checkm8.info". Do anyone here have experience using one of these in the past? Are they scammer at all?

Thanks,

Those "solutions" are scams.

Unless you have the original receipt or the person you purchased from can remove the activation lock, it's a paperweight as activation lock is controlled via Apple servers: the machine phones home to get a certificate to permit booting of the machine.
