At minimum they need to keep track of the ICCID for your sim card and the IMEI for your phone [1]. Once you have the IMEI and know that this is an iPhone, it is trivial to ask Apple for the records of who bought that device, or which iTunes account is associated with that SN.

- scintill76 10y agoNot that it matters much, but a SIM card has an ICCID, and a (GSM) phone has an IMEI. ESN is a phone identifier, for CDMA phones.
- guiambros 10y agoOf course, makes totally sense. IMEI is associated with the (GSM) phone, not SIM card. Thanks.
