Our iPod Touch was stolen from our car. I bought it for my husband and unfortunately he never activated Find My Phone. Is there anyway the device can be erased using the serial numbers? I have all the original packaging with the numbers from the Apple store.
See if anything here helps
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support
He probably can not see your personal info without your Apple ID and Password. Although he might be able to activate it.
If the iPod touch requires a passcode, and the passcode is entered too many times, it will require a reset in order to work correctly again. This will mean that it has to be erased.
Without Find my iPhone the device can't be remotely wiped but note that the iPod touch requires a Wi-Fi connection to be able to be erased remotely. Without that the device can't recieve the order to wipe itself until there is a connection to Wi-Fi.
Also there is the option that the device is erasing all data after 10 wrong passcode entries. This has to be enabled in Settings --> Passcode and requires a Passcode. Was the device locked with a passcode? With that the thief can't access your data atleast.
And if the thief wipes the device by restoring using iTunes for example, all data is lost and Activation Lock should be enabled if the iPod is bound to an iCloud account.
