Description
I lost my charcoal knit scarf yesterday around 3pm while I wandered downtown Florence, near Big Spring Park in the Florence/Muscle Shoals area. It's a medium-length scarf, soft wool with a subtle rib pattern, and there's a small wooden tag near the edge that says Elm & Co. The scarf has sentimental value; it's a gift from my grandmother who passed away last year, so I'm really hoping to find it. If you found it around the parking lot behind Bank Street or near the Jefferson Street bridge, please reach out. I'd be grateful to get it back; it means a lot to me.

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.
