Thats exactly why you want your phone to be locked. Here's what i know. Go to your Microsoft account, go to your phone, there you'll find options such as find my phone, lock my phone etc. There you can do what you want. You can also put a message on the phone's lock screen if you desire. Note that you will not be able to locate your phone if is not connectes to a wifi.
