How to secure my apple account if.someone steals my iphone after seeing me entering my passcode?

The story below freaks me out. How could I protect my apple account if someone steals my iphone (after seeing me entering my passcode)?

Hello ~ Start here and become familiar with this helpful link…

If my iPhone were stolen this link would be the very first action I would take but I would also go the extra step to contact my bank and credit card companies. Inconvenience…yes but less of one that dealing with the possible consequences. Don’t let anyone “see” you unlock your iPhone and choose a very strong password. I hope this helps.
