Apple deleted my phone

To be quick, Went into the Apple Store to purchase the new watch. Employee said the set up would be easy and done in 5 minutes. The employee managed to delete everything from my phone and factory reset. I lost pretty much everything. What action should I take next?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

With a little luck your phone had iCloud backups enabled, and you should be able to restore it from a recent backup.
