Secure a Lost Phone

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-08-05 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-digital-safety

Do the right things fast when your phone is lost or stolen — lock it, protect your accounts and money, and decide on wipe vs. locate — in the correct order. Use when asked my phone was stolen, I lost my phone what do I do, someone took my phone, or secure my lost phone. Produces an ordered action checklist (locate/lock, protect SIM and banking, change key passwords, wipe decision), the accounts to prioritize because the phone unlocks them, reporting steps, and prevention setup for next time.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“My phone was just stolen — what do I do right now?”“I lost my iPhone and my banking app is on it.”“Someone took my Android, help me secure everything.”“Should I wipe my lost phone or try to find it?”“My phone's gone and it had my authenticator app on it.”

What to give it

Lost or stolen — and any sense of where (changes locate vs. wipe)
Phone type — iPhone/Android (determines the find-my/lock tools)
What's on it — banking/payment apps, 2FA/authenticator, work data
Protections it had — passcode, biometrics, encryption, find-my enabled
Access to another device — to run the find-my and change passwords

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Locate/lock via find-my is the first step
SIM suspension and bank/wallet protection are included early
Prioritizes changing email + key account passwords (2FA risk)
Presents the locate-vs-wipe decision with tradeoffs
Covers police report + IMEI and carrier notification
Ends with prevention setup

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Wiping instantly** and losing all chance to locate it (when it was protected/recoverable).
**Forgetting the SIM** — leaving SMS 2FA hijackable.
**Ignoring banking/wallet** access on the device.
**Not changing passwords** when the phone held 2FA.
**Skipping the police report/IMEI** needed for insurance.
