Gray rim glasses with blue case
Description
I lost my gray plastic-frame glasses yesterday around 3pm in downtown Bowling Green. I was by the Corvette Museum on Corvette Drive, then wandered through Fountain Square Park and along Center Street before realizing they weren't on my face. They’re lightweight plastic frames, matte gray with a slim metal bridge, about medium width, and there’s a tiny scratch on the left temple that shows up in bright light. They came with a navy blue hard-shell case that has a small white star logo on the outside. They were a gift from my sister last Christmas, so I’m really hoping someone picked them up and can return them.

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.
