Erased iPhone disappeared from iCloud himself, how?

[iMore Question]

Hi, a few days ago my iPhone was stolen, I erase it from Find My Iphone but today I receive SMS on my restored number that my iPhone was deleted from icloud account, how it possible?

Welcome to iMore! I believe the only way to remove a device from iCloud is with the Apple ID password. Is there any way the person who stole your phone got into it (no passcode, or an easy to guess one)? Did you have your iCloud password saved in your stolen iPhone (in Notes, as a saved password in Safari, etc.)? Have you changed your Apple ID password since your phone was stolen? Are you sure YOU didn't remove it?

Did you accidentally select the remove from account option after remotely wiping it?
