Lost/stolen Apple Watch dead but still showing location

My Apple Watch Series 5 has been lost for a couple of days, it’s definitely dead and hasn’t been powered on since the “Lost Mode” is still pending. However it seems to be updating locations, I have looked high and low over and over but I still can not find it, the locations it’s updating is where I have been. Is it possible that the Watch App is doing this updating and not my Apple Watch?

I’ve already done the steps on the article you mentioned, my question is, since my watch is dead (no battery) how can it still keep updating? I know it’s not turned off because “lost mode” is still pending. My watch is also coincidentally in the locations that I have been and I know for a fact that it is not actually there with me.
