Have you filed a police report? Provide them IMEI number, etc....
In theory, AT&T should be able to track it down once someone goes to activate it.

AT&T does nothing to help you. I called them and they said all they can do was disable my sim card. man this sucks. Anyways, thanks for the answer.

you can at least ask the phone company to put IMEI lock so that whoever is trying to use it gets hard time.
