Description
Hi, I’m Priya Desai. I lost my student ID around 8:15 a.m. this morning in downtown Delaware, Delaware. I’d been grabbing coffee on Main Street and heading toward the campus library when I realized the lanyard was gone. I retraced the block past the old Post Office steps and the corner shop, but the card didn’t turn up. It has my photo and campus access, and I’m stressed about getting into buildings for class and exams. If someone found a white ID card with a blue stripe near Main Street by the Post Office steps, that would be mine.

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.
