Hello Guys
i write to you seeking a solution to my predicament i had in stalled avast anti theft but the irony is that it was off at the time i was being robed is it to late ? i have already communicated with the police and my service provider and i was assured that the phone is blocked, I am told that thieves can unblock the phone i relay hope the avast android protector is different .
I have an avast account ... and IME number

If you had it off then I doubt there is anything that can be done as there is no way to turn it on remotely.
Footnote I thought there was nothing that could be done but Filip has said otherwise. That's excellent.

Hi,
actually, you can enable Anti-Theft. From avast! Account, browse to your device and then choose "Enable Anti-Theft" as a command.
