You can certainly try to contact the police in the area where the phone is currently located, but I would be very surprised if they do anything other than take your report.


I'm sorry, but there is about a zero chance that a stolen phone will ever be recovered.


If you have not already done so, contact your carrier and ask them to "blacklist" the phone, so that it cannot be used by another person.
