Description
I lost my navy blue US passport yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Dowlen Road in Beaumont. It’s a standard US passport; cover is navy blue with the gold eagle on the front, and the bottom edge has a small crease, plus a faint coffee stain on the back cover. Inside, the photo page shows me and my details, nothing extra weird. It has sentimental value for me — it’s tied to an upcoming family trip and those visa stamps from a big trip; I really need it back to travel soon. If found, email me at [email protected].

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.
