I tried the TSA, also a private retrieval service but all to no avail.
The stolen Mac is with someone who is trying to infiltrate into my current Mac. Having failed to break into my Mac I am getting death threats. Since the Mac has a GPS locator is it possible to find its location?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.0

Troubleshooting a Stollen Device:
I. Secure your Account:
Having been stollen, someone likley has your info. So, do three Things:
A. Verify Your Devices:
Verify that your the devices logged in to your account or officially yours, by using this link: Check your Apple ID Device List to See where you're Signed in - Apple Support
B. Consider Modifying your Credentials:
By all means, consider modifying your credentials, starting with a new password.
C. Change the Password and Passcode:
II. As for death threats...
Report this: Take Screenshots of these messages. And report things... Use my User Tip: Using the Photos App to Report Scams: - User Tips
Follow these instructions: If your Mac is lost or stolen - Apple Support
If you are getting "death threats", notify your local police.
Since the Mac has a GPS locator ...
They don't.
The good news, such as it is, is that a Mac is utterly useless to anyone without your password.
Follow the others' instructions.
