If the device is removed from an account after it is erased, Activation Lock will be turned off. This allows another person to turn on and use the device.

Simple answer is you can’t The reason being is because you can get anybody’s IMEI number and then track them kind of like the situation going on right now with AirTags were people were putting AirTags in peoples vehicles without their permission and tracking their whereabouts the only way to track a device is if it’s an owned device that you are signed into in the Find My app.
