I've recently been robbed at gun point and the robber coerced me into giving him the 6 digit password for the device.

He then left and a couple of minutes later used that password and the email app on the phone to change my iCloud password and remove the device from my account, making it impossible for me to erase my data or locate the phone.


Is it possible to add a "account recovery delay" that would count down a couple of days before just giving the account to whoever currently holds the device (and that devices password)?


How can I protect myself from this situation in the future? I can't think of any way...
