Stolen IPHONE - iCloud Account Compromised and Locked by Thief

Hello Apple Community -

I'm writing this message because I need this to be brought to Apple's attention immediately. This is a cry for help - as my personal information and security is at risk.

Friday night my phone was stolen, and by the time I was able to log onto my computer to check Find My iPhone, the thief had accessed my iCloud, changed the password to my account, and began their tirade of transferring bank funds, making purchases with my Apple Pay, etc. They now have access to all of my data, pictures, texts, contacts, passwords.

The thieves were smart - once they logged into my iCloud and changed the password, they activated a Recovery Key (a 28 character key used to unlock an iCloud account with a forgotten password). A smart idea by Apple, however, this being used by thieves to make sure their victim cannot access their iCloud account.

It looks like the trusted phone number on my stolen iCloud is still my current phone number (which I have not changed). Because my stolen iCloud account is still active, I'm worried that any new texts being sent to my phone number are also being received by the stolen iCloud account. Previously, I had send and receive iMessages being routed to both my phone number and my stolen iCloud account.

On top of this, even though my stolen iCloud account has my phone number as the trusted number, I can't recover my account because of this stupid recovery key. Also, having recovery key enabled disables the ability for Account Recovery, so that isn't an option.

I know sophisticated hackers are out there, and you'd be a fool to think there isn't sophisticated software coming out to crack into locked phones. All I'm asking is for someone at Apple to provide answers. I've spoken with countless Apple Advisors and spent hours trying to combat this for my own personal safety, but I haven't gotten clear information.

I also wanted to add: I have an iPad that was a trusted device on my stolen iCloud account and it was logged into the iCloud prior to being stolen. Now, I can't sign out of my iPad's iCloud account - meaning, the thief has access to my iPad's location at all times as long as the device is on. I can't hard reset the iPad because it requires the password to my iCloud account, which I DONT HAVE.

All I want to know is:

1) Can the hacker still see iMessages directed to my phone number on my stolen iCloud account?

2) Given my phone number is the trusted phone number for this stolen account, can't something be done (a case being escalated, SOMETHING) so that I have a chance at getting my information back?

Any help / discussion is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Please lets get this in front of the higher ups at Apple because this is a genuine safety and privacy concern for all of Apple's consumers.

God Bless.
