Getting a Stollen iPhone Through Apple:

You need: AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss for this. Note: This is not an option in all counties/regions.


A Few Thoughts for Retrieving a Stollen iPhone:

  • Use “Find My”:

Go Here: iCloud - Find My - Apple and see if it is enabled. Use the steps provided there to locate it.


  • Backtrack your Locations:

If you were at a retail store or local cafe', then stop by and see if if was placed aside by the store manager.


  • Call the Number:

Dial the iPhone itself; you might hear it ring in the other room..


  • Text the iPhone a Message:

If you cannot find this, then text the iPhone, sending it a messages asking whomever finds it to contact you. Perhaps, have them eMail you, putting a particular title in it (so that you recognize the eMail. If you go to pick it up from an individual, then have someone there with you, probably meeting them at a public, safe location, both for safety purposes.


  • Also, Contact Local Authorities:

Perhaps someone is respective enough to have turned-around handed it over to local authorities. See if they have found it.

Are you saying you stopped by Apple to fix this?


Securing your Account:

Having been suspiciously scammed, someone may have your credentials. So, do three Things:


A. Re-Associate All Devices:

Disassociate all devices from your Apple Account, first.  Sign out of iCloud on all of your devices.. Go here to check the devices associated to your account: Check your Apple ID Device list to See where you're Signed in - Apple Support. Then, log in to your Apple iCloud Account on each device.


B. 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
