wipe stolen iphone

    Just wondering if anyone knows if I can wipe information off my stolen iPhone. I have already rang Vodafone to block calls or whatever they do.
    But if the scumbag is in an area with WiFi can they still read my emails, look at apps etc? I've changed my password on email, Facebook etc.
    I didn't have any find my iPhone apps installed on my iPhone
    Sorry not very good with technology so basic answers would be appreciated.

    Not sure about iPhone, but on my iPod touch if someone enters the wrong pin a certain number of times it wipes itself......it's under the security setting somewhere. Not much help now if it isn't set up, but maybe for the next one. If you sync gmail ecalendars etc you can stop those accounts being shared from your computer. Changing the password will take care of that too. I don't know if that removes previously downloaded emails or not though.

    Did you have the App "Find My iPhone" on your phone? If so you can wipe it remotely from www.icloud.com
    Did you ask the operator to Blacklist the IMEI of the phone?

    In any case the their will most likely wipe it to use or sell on. Slim chance that an opportunistic thief is after data or access to your Facebook or email. Unless you're a spy?:P
