Your own use of FindMy and it’s Lost” functions … either as an app or via a browser … are the ONLY “technical means” of locating your missing phone.


There’s truly nothing anyone else here or at Apple can do to assist.


If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support


NOTE: Apple will NOT contact you w/ a “We found your phone” text message asking for “validating” personal info from you.


This is a widespread scam where the thieves attempt to phish info from you to break-into your phone and/or AppleID.


Do NOT click on any links and REVEAL NOTHING … and do NOT perform Step 7 of the linked instructions.


(Doing so removes the device’s Activation Lock … which is EXACTLY what any thieves are trying to do)
