“Removed from [my] account”? So the thief had access to your Apple ID? Interesting.


You’re out of luck. Although it sounds like perhaps you know the thief.


Anyway, here are all the details.

If it truly was removed from your account there is no way. Read the linked documents for more details.

- The Find My service is the only recovery feature Apple offers. It MUST be set up before the device is lost. If you did not do that it is too late to do it now and there is no other feature Apple offers that can help you find it.
