First, contact the police. Second, contact your insurance company. In the UK most standard home insurance policies cover individual items up to £1500 in value.


You can still mark you device as lost and erase its contents when you log into iCloud here:

You may not get your laptop back but at least you know that all your data won't be accessible.


Good luck
