iPhone doesn't charge by cable, it charges only wirelessly.

Hello,
recently I bought i secondhand iPhone 12, but I was scammed.
The iPhone doesn't charge with the lighting cable. It charges only with the wirelessly charger. Actually, when the phone is off and I'm trying to charge it by cable, it is showing that is charging, but it doesn't. (Battery level doesn't go up.)When the phone is on and I'm trying to charge it, then nothing happens, no charging indication at all. The wirelessly charger is working.
Firstly after I bought the phone, the battery died at some point, because it went to zero, so I try to charge it, but the battery was completely dead. I went into an apple store and they told me that it was probably water damage, but the guy wasn't really sure, because he couldn't see clearly the water indicator. He mentioned that he couldn't see any corrosion to the port and that the port seems to be clear. They didn't try to charge it wirelessly. They connected a diagnostic tool and they said to me that they were receiving some signals, but they were too slow, so probably I have a bad motherboard. After this, I bought a wirelessly charger, and the phone charged and start successfully! It is working ok,(except for the ear speaker, which is too low, barely you can hear it). If a try to connect it to my mac, then sometimes I'm receiving a USB indication to the iPhone for some seconds and then nothing. Do you think if I replace the charging port board, it will fix the issue? I'm planning to "bath" the board in 99.9 alcohol, too.
I can not contact the guy who sold me the phone, nor Apple is giving me his details.
