my iPhoneX has been stolen, and I put it on lost mode with the contact number. I received an sms few days later with caption “iPhone has been recovered” with the link to trace it. I signed on the link and immediately the phone was erased from “find my” app on my tablet. Now it seems the find my feature is off. Did the criminals send me phishing link posing as apple or what happened and is there a way to find my phone. I haven’t blocked the phone by the way. Thank you.

That was phishing and is a common tactic to get the password to turn off activation lock.
