Answer:

  1. Track your device - Get a protection app that includes tracking, lockdown, and wipe features. Apps such as Lookout, AVG, and Avast may already be pre-installed on your device (Android's Device Manager; Apple's Find My iPhone; and BlackBerry Protect).

    To help, however, your software must be activated, so get it going and learn how to use it.

  2. Get the hardware specifics - Paperwork is not everyone's favorite thing, but police reports require a substantial amount of detail. So, give your device's serial and model numbers a name. Note the MAC address and computer name. The IMEI number of your cell phone should also be written down. This data can be used for tracking.

I hope this helps you
