Stolen iPhone (alien.top)

My iPhone was just stolen and I only found out when I got home. I then marked it as lost in Find My and subsequently erased the phone remotely. I have a passcode on my iPhone but I'm not sure if I activated the lock in time in Find My. I tried calling my phone but it goes to voice mail. But in Findmy The time which I assume is the phone was last seen keeps updated every now and then ( 19 mins ago...etc)

I know the phone is a goner and I will need to get a new phone but does anyone know if I activated the lock in FindMy in time? Am worried about any information or content that is stored on my iPhone storage and not on iCloud. Identity theft would be a nightmare

Anything else I need to do? Help appreciated. Thank you

the lock is active whenever someone erased the device, so as long as the device is still in your account it will be a block of ewaste unless they guessed your password
