Hi everyone!

So, as of an hour ago, I have been robbed at gunpoint. They made me unlock my iPhone and then give it to them. What can I do in order to protect my data?

I have already marked my phone as lost, however, I’m not sure how that is going to work considering that they had the phone unlocked already, and therefore might have been able to access my personal data. I am not really concerned with getting my phone back, but rather am concerned with them using my personal data in order to extortion my family members. I live in a third world country were organized crime is rampant, and therefore this could be really threatening for me.

Thanks in advance!
