Found brown leather wallet with moose emblem
Description
I found a brown genuine leather bifold wallet this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the Morris Thompson Cultural Center on 2nd Avenue, Fairbanks. It's a mid-size wallet, about 4.5 by 3.5 inches, with slightly worn edges and a tan suede interior. The outside has a small embossed moose on the lower-right corner and a faint coffee stain along the bottom edge. Inside there are several cards and a laminated transit pass, plus a small photo of a kid with a dog tucked into the card slots. If this belongs to you, please get in touch—I’d love to help reunite you with it.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
