Your post is a very good warning to others to not add an unknown person to your iCloud account. This is a common scam that allows them to block you out of your account simply by changing your password. You would not add an unknown person to your bank account, so do not add them to your iCloud account.
As for reclaiming your account, you can try to remove the Activation Lock by following this support article. You will be required to prove your identity and in most cases will need the original receipt for your device from Apple showing the serial number of the device.

This is a nasty scheme. It happened to me approximately 10 days later. Thankfully I managed to unlock it with Apple Support by providing the receipt and the IMEI of my phone.
