Hello friends
Usually don't ask for help, but here recently my Iphone got swiped ;/. I have already called ATT and the sim card has been disabled and my old number switched to a new phone I got. Can this scumm bag access my apps, passcodes etc....I will say that it was password protected (the phone itself) and itunes was passcoded. Can these be bypassed?....basically I need to know what to do as far as securing my info....and NO I didn't have mobileme, but now am going to invest in it....any helpfull advice would be appreciated...thanks dudes and dudettes!....V

He would have to get past your iPhone password first if he did that he would then need your iTunes password to access your account, but to be safe change the iTunes password just in case you have it stored in your iPhone.
I'm not sure what apps you have that he can mess with and harm you though, that's if he even cracks your iPhone password to begin with. I guess I should password protect my iPhone I never did it because I figured it would be a pain to put it in everytime, but now I may have to do it. Damn it |

How do we know you are You and not the guy that stole the phone?
You should be safe with password and disabling the sim card. However I think a change of every password you had accessable on the phone is in order. |

yeah itunes password is taken care of...really didn't have any financial account stuff on it..just apps like opentable, holy bible (i hope he uses that app alot!!), weather channel, flixter (movie theater finder), a star charting app, periodic table app, chess, othello etc.. ya know stuff like that....the one that i am kinda worried about is the AIM app. I dont want whomever to msg ppl and be a jerk to everyone, thus why i am going to delete buddy list...thanks for the advice thus far guys...its appreciated...hope to hear more suggestions or theories from techno ppl or who have been subject to this type of injustice

People suck! I love my iphone, but I could never steal anyone else's, because I like having it brand new from the ground up and not having to delete a bunch of stuff and what-not. I just wish others felt the same way, but if people are willing to re-package little plastic figures that don't belong in certain packages and return them to the store, then I'm sure they are willing to steal an iphone as well.
