Stolen IPhone may have been sold

I believe that my IPhone was sold at a store. Can I report the store if they did buy stolen property. When I first traced it, it was at an apartment. Now it’s showing up at one of those Metro Cell Phone places inside of a FoodTown. 

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 15

Two Thoughts:

  • Lock with Find My:

Was Find My enabled? If so, I'd say use Find My, and see if you can lock it.


  • Text a Message:

Text a message to the iPhone, letting whomever know that it's been (supposedly) stollen.
