Find My sends you a message once your stolen iPhone gets switched on? Hi community! I got my phone stolen a few weeks ago. It had findMY activated, but as soon as it got stolen they put airplane mode on, hence I was not able to locate it. I just got a message presumably from FindMy saying that my iPhone was found and turned on. There’s a link to view the location. Question is: is this a scam or is it normal procedure to get a text from FindMy once your stolen iPhone gets switched on? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

My stolen phone is no longer on my Find My Iphone. Hi, So my Iphone12 Pro got stolen on Wednesday. I marked it as Stolen on Find My Iphone and initiated a remote wipe. I just got a message (text) with a link saying my iphone is found and it sent me to Findmyiphone URL with a GPS-characters... My laptop said this was a dodgy link lol . http://www.icloud.com.gps-app.live/find/?auth=v91r18 but it seems its legit. I can no longer see this iphone in the find my Iphone section. Only under my devices where I have no options. Was this a legit message? It wanted me to input the code for the phone which I thought was suspect. Does the fact I cannot see it anymore in Find my iphone mean it is now deleted? thanks
