My iPhone was stolen this afternoon!!!!!

I bought the phone from Maxis and already contacted Maxis about this issue. I'm quite worry because I didn't set any passcode at all. So which mean anyone can access the info inside.

I just wondering is there any way to wipe out the information or block iphone via IMEI code? I called Maxis and they said they can't do it because of technology issue... alamak.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Thanks

usually i keep my phone in my pocket but because today i was wearing dress... so i left my phone in my drawer. this afternoon, a guy walked in and said he would like to order namecards. so when everything is about to finish, i walked into my production area and get the thing for him, after i came out, he's gone and so does my phone.

so i rewinded the CCTV, i saw him walked near to my station while i was away, then took the phone.

i think he saw i put my phone in the drawer.

talked to Apple and they said they cannot do anything because i do not have mobileme.

talked to maxis but they said they cant block iphone via IMEI code because they dont have such technology.

Don't you have all his details? Name, phone number, etc? Why not just call and confront him with the CCTV recording of him taking the phone?

i don't understand why a lot of ppl do not take measure to protect their iPhone. For myself, MobileMe is the ideal choice to track my iPhone & iPad. Also able to do remote wipe and remote lock.

hey there . why don't you go back to your service provider and ask about the problem and tell them your situation . So that you won't worry so much .And regarding to the lost of your iphone . I dun see anyway you can track it back bro . As they say post the pix if u captured him or her on the cctv .

agree with this. please post the IMEI, you can find it from the warranty card/iphone box.
