Log onto your icloud account via browser on a computer. If you are still able to. And delete the data there.

no they took icloud password from me, and its offline on find my iphone
Consider it gone then.
These fucking scumbag thieves are getting smarter, and they knew to ask for the iCloud password.
Doubtful that they stole the phone for the data, they probably just reset it and needed your password to remove the account so they could use the phone or sell it.

And it happened in Rawalpindi? Can't believe this is happening here, too.
They stole the password too, so not sure if you've any chance to iCloud access.

Can still block the IMEI to stop it from circulating in the market, no?

You can but it can still be used as an iPod and for WiFi only comms if the IMEI is blocked.

Locking them out through iCloud makes the phone unusable and they'll be stuck in the setup wizard but since they have the password, they're free to do whatever they want with the phone.

Why'd you tell them the right passeord? Unless they were online and were cross checking all that in gun point?

You did well and acted smartly in that situation. Smart moves under such circumstances always lead to disastrous results.

Firstly, I'm so sorry for your loss. The experience just by reading it gives me chills.

Correct me if I'm wrong but if you had 2-factor authentication on they won't be able to unlock your iPhone even with the icloud password right? Did you have it on?

Sorry for your loss. If nothing works, contact Apple ASAP assuming you have purchase receipt or something.

Where in Rawalpindi? So others can be cautious in that area.
Iran road, it's near 6 road

Didn't get you, but when I got home after filing report at police station I couldn't find my phone on iCloud,

This is deeply upsetting to learn. Good to know that you are safe and sound.

I pass by Iran road on a daily basis. No road is a safe road, to be honest, especially in those wee hours.

A neighbor was once kidnapped at 6th road while he was on his way to college. Oh, and this was in broad daylight so you can imagine how much riskier it is when the streets are not busy.

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
