Question regarding iPhone serial numbers

[drjohnson36]

Does iTunes keep any records of the serial numbers of iPhones that have been synced with that computer? If so, how do I access that information?

This is a time sensitive matter.

No.

OK, does apple keep any records of the serial numbers of the phones they give out as warranty replacements?

My phone got stolen last thursday, and I got a new one (or refurb) under warranty last tuesday (2 days before the theft). I may have found the thief on craigslist and I need to verify that it's mine.

I think tiny umbrella might, did you do that? I know the IMEI is in there at any rate.
