The seller obviously lied, I would never buy a used iPhone online and unseen unless maybe on a list like this where I sort of know the person who is selling it has been around and even then I have heard stories where people sell stuff which is not at all as advertised or disappear with the money. Caveat emptor is very much in order here.

Otherwise you will have to find out what the carrier was, and possibly get the seller to give their permission to have it unlocked. Sadly, it could be that the seller simply lied. But, call Apple Accessibility: 877-204-3930 and see what they can sort out.
