Black leather briefcase with silver lock
Description
I lost my black leather briefcase, Kenneth Cole, yesterday around 3pm near the Safeway on 6th Street in downtown Klamath Falls. It's a mid-sized case with a few scuffs on the corners and a silver lock that sometimes sticks when I close it. Inside there's a red fabric lining, a small blue luggage tag with my initials 'P.P.' on it, and a USB-C drive; it also holds a wedding invitation and a photo of my kids—sentimental stuff I really need back. The briefcase has sentimental value; it was a gift from my late aunt, and I feel really anxious about losing it. If anyone found it, please drop it off at the Lost & Found near City Hall.

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.
