Description
I lost my small black portable speaker with a red logo yesterday around 3pm near the Ithaca Commons on State Street, by the Starbucks. It's a compact wireless speaker about the size of my palm, in decent condition with a tiny dent on the top edge and an orange sticker on the back with my initials 'PP'. It’s categorized as Miscellaneous Electronics, and it used to sit on my desk at home, so it has sentimental value—my sister gave it to me as a gift. I really need it back; if you found it, I’d be incredibly grateful.

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.
