Hi, friends . . .
I had my phone stolen in late September. I've sent an Erase request through the Find my device section of my Google account, along with the Lock request.
I've blocked my number on the same day and went to the provider's counter to re-acquire my number and a new SIM card to make the SIM card in the lost phone inaccessible and unusable.
Today I checked the Find my device section again, and I noticed a third device aside from the lost phone and my new phone; the lost phone is a Nokia, and my new phone is a Huawei . . . and the third device is a OnePlus3T. I confirmed this by checking my e-mail and found out that there is an alert e-mail about a new login; I thought it was just another alert e-mail because I installed and used my Google account to login to the apps and software (I do this a lot recently, mostly because I have to install some apps on the new phone that requires connection to my Google account).
I clicked the Find lost phone button and clicked the OnePlus3T, and the system tried to connect to it; it failed. I clicked the Lock button, with a text. Then I clicked the Erase button, so I've sent an Erase request.
I changed my Google account's password and made sure that I erase the login on the OnePlus3T. Now I only have two devices logins, one is on my current laptop, and one on my Huawei phone.
I'm just curious - and quite worried - how someone can log in to my account on another device? Is it really possible? The password was changed, I even set up a 2-step verification on the new Huawei right after I bought it.
Please help, I really hope someone can shed some light on this problem.
