Description
I lost my black Anker USB-C hub yesterday around 3pm near Millennium Park, by the Crown Fountain, on the stretch east of Michigan Ave. It's a slim matte black hub with four ports, two USB-C and two USB-A, and there's a tiny dent along the top edge. It was tucked in a clear protective sleeve with my initials 'AW' written in Sharpie on the sleeve. I rely on it for work trips and daily use, so it's more than just a gadget to me. If someone found it near the park or along Michigan Ave, please reach out - I really need it back.

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.
