Getting past locked hard drive

My mother in law got hit by a scammer. They locked her hard drive. It’s a 10 year old Dell desktop tower. All she uses it for is email, and light web browsing. It’s fine to wipe & clean the hard drive as she has few files on it. How can I get passed the hard drive password request and restore factory install of OS? Many thanks in advance!
