I was scammed out of my phone, sold it online and it was just a big scam. Long story short, I no longer have my phone. I have the serial number, is there any way to provide apple this serial number and them shut the phone off?

Is there a way to provide apple with a serial number of a phone that I own and apple turn the phone into a brick? I was selling the phone online and was conned out of my phone, sent the fake buyer my phone and the payment never cleared. I learned my lesson but is there any way i can report the phone as stolen?

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 13
