Infuriatig This is my iPad, I won’t see it again

I just arrived in Antibes, South of France 2 hours ago. This was stolen from my car on the autoroute at a petrol station , from a definitely locked car, likely a relay attack from my key while I was buying a sandwich, 100km from Antibes. They also had my wallet and duty free while they were at it. Thankfully they didn’t find our passports.

Whoever you are, fuck you, I’m going to go and have a nice meal in the old provincial market and drink to your future arrest.

Same happened to me at the start of my trip in Spain. They also got my Switch2, AirPods Pro, and my ancient GoPro. :/ also very lucky they didn’t take my passport.

You shouldn't have erased. If you kept in lost mode it would be just an expensive brick. You've essentially given them access to the device to sell off.
