Description
I lost my grey Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 tablet yesterday around 3pm. It's in a blue protective case with a small white sticker on the back that reads 'AZ'. The tablet is 11 inches, with a faint scratch along the top edge and a chipped bottom-left corner. I last had it outside Costa Coffee on Market Place near Derby Cathedral as I was heading back toward Friar Gate. It holds family photos and a few work files, so it really feels irreplaceable to me; I'd be so grateful to get 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.
