Can I possibly find my lost Iphone thru IMEI search?
Ok so I believe my step mom stole my iphone. Is there ANY way I can find out if it belongs to me thru the IMEI number? And then report it stolen to the police? Cuz remember, when I got it, I got it and then they CANCELLED THE SERVICE DUE TO FRAUDGULANT ACTIVITY. So now I have no idea what to even do. I KNOW THAT SHE HAS SERVICE IN IT NOW THOUGH. WITH AT&T.
Make the police report and call your carrier to shut off the phone. When they disconnect the service, they will also blacklist the IMEI number (serial number) and it can never be reactivated by any carrier in the US ever again. Put your IMEI on the blacklist website so if it is ever recovered it might be get back to you.
Run it here to see if it's already on the list. Best luck.

- Using the IMEI number to find an offline, lost iPhone 5? Hi, I recently had my iPhone 5 stolen, on find my iPhone it will not give me the location because it is offline. I was wondering if there was anyway I could use the IMEI (which I have) to find the location of my iPhone.
- My iPhone just got stolen and i didn't put on Find my iphone. Is there a way i can find it without find my iphone? I have found out that i can remove my iphone from associated devices. Does doing this erase the iphone?
- Lost iPhone - blocked imei - now found, can I unblock? I lost my iPhone but someone kindly returned it to the hotel I lost it at. I reported it stolen/ missing at the time and it got blocked- obviously I can't really afford a brand new iPhone 5 when this one is fine but now my sim doesn't work (no signal just 3G) if I go to O2 with proof it's me will they unblock it for me?
- Is. There any way that I could possibly try and find my missing IPhone? So here's what happened. I would say about last April or so I got a new iphone. I GOT the service removed after they suspected fraudulent activity. It was stolen shortly after that. Is there any way that I could track it?
