Iphone stolen

My iphone was stolen, then I log in icloud and use the function Find my iphone. In the next couples of hours, I received an SMS message from apple.com with the notice about my stolen iphone, and its location, I click on the link, log in and there is a location.

But I then realize that the link is fake.

Then I think the thief has accessed my iphone.


Then I have to change the password of icloud. And i have to remove the lost device from the list.


I am so worry now. I have no opportunity to find my stolen iphone. But is there any risk to my icloud? and my current iphone?
