Description
I lost my blue plastic key fob with house and mailbox keys yesterday around 5pm near Syntagma Square, outside the Starbucks on Mitropoleos Street in Athens. The fob has a tiny dent on the metal ring and a red enamel heart charm attached. One of the keys is a bit bent from daily use, and the set shows some wear. This set is crucial for me because it opens my apartment door and the mailbox, so it's got sentimental value and I really need it back. If you found it, please message me so we can arrange a meetup near Monastiraki or return it to me at the Syntagma area.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
