someone has turned it on 3 days in a row. ive run the locator, but it does not good while the phone is off. they only turn it on long enough to get stopped by my password on the phone. but, data statistics on the phone that it has been turned on, and data cant be sent nor received while the phone is off, ergo they have turned it on. can the phone be default settinged, jail broken, number changed (but not the actual phone identification number), without knowing my current passcode? and is there a way I can get an text message to one of the other phones on my account when the phone uses data (ie: is turned on), if for how ever long it is turned on?

Hi Gngrbrdgrl27 Its terrible when a phone is lost. I would report the phone as stolen and get yourself another device. Once the phone is placed on the lost/stolen list, it will not be able to be activated. If you would like to check your text messages, you can see the numbers in MyVerizon. If you had Messages+ set up then you could view your messages at: http://vz.to/1rizccU
You do have the ability to send alerts to any phone that you choose on your account. You would sign into MyVerizon and choose Data Alerts. Hope this helps.

iOS 7 or higher has the anti-theft measures that would not prevent the thief from erasing the iPad, but would prevent them from setting it up or using it.
There is also a setting in Find My iPhone that you should activate in any current or future iDevices, "Send Last Location"
Here is a page that lets you know how Find My iPhone anti-theft measures work from the thief's side.

If you don't have it enabled, the thief will be able to wipe and start over as a brand new iPhone.
