If someone steals an Iphone 5 can it be tracked by carrier / police or other?
If someone has stolen an i phone 5 can it be somehow tracked if sim is disabled/ destroyed, the phone has been completely reset to factory settings and had a new sim from a different provider placed into it with find my phone, location services all turned off too.
is there any way by using IMEI number or other that it can be tracked by police, phone provider or other?
If you have the ID number of the phone, apple can disable it. Police probably won't get it back but it can be disabled so it can never be used.
- Tracked stolen iphone, can the police help retrieve it? On Monday night my phone went missing at a nightclub, I'm unsure whether it was lost or stolen however a couple of other things went missing from my bag. I know now that the phone has been taken, using iCoud and "find my iphone" I tracked my phone to a house on a road near to the club, so someone has obviously found/taken my phone home with them. Are the police able to do anything about this as i know the location of my phone?
- Say someone sold you a stolen or lost iPhone 5.can it be tracked? I lost an iPhone 5… Just wondering, is there a way to track it to who ever has it? I mean after they have basically factory reset it. I heard they have a GPS tracker that allows the carrier to track it… Is that true? Can someone start using the phone themselves… With no problem. Have I lost my iPhone for good?
- My iphone was stolen. Find my iphone tracked it 15 miles from my house. Should I call police? It happened two weekends ago and I don't think the person ever turned it on until today but I got an email saying it was turned on, lost mode was activated so it locked itself, and it has tracked it to a city about 15 miles away from my house at an apartment complex. I don't think it would be necessary to go there and start knocking on doors. Should I contact police? Its an iphone 4.
- If someone steals an iphone from gamestop can they sell it at a different gamestop? Ok so I'm not asking for me omg ;-; but there's a guy that's stolen three iPhones from three different gamestops and we're supposed to be on the lookout for him. I was just wondering if he brought one of the iPhones in to sell it is there a way we would know it was one of the stolen ones? Like the guy took them from the front before we even had a chance to inventory them. I don't know how if there's a serial number gamestop tracks them on or what?
