I don't use iCloud, location services or find my phone,
After i signed out of iCloud, I received an e-mail from apple saying, your apple id and password will no longer be required for someone to erase, reactivate, and use your iPhone. How can anyone get on my phone if they don't have my touch id or phone password? Thanks a lot
First of all I do not think it was a fraudulent email. Second if I had your phone in my hands right now and iCloud lock was disabled (which is what you did), I would have myself a good working phone in about half an hour. As long as I do not need your information on the phone (and I do not) disabling iCloud lock allows me to restore your phone and set it up for myself. Your touch id and password will delay the restore of your phone by precisely 2 minutes.
However if your iCloud lock was enabled - I would not be able to activate and use your phone, cause for activation I would need to have your iCloud password and nobody has it, but you.
