Description
I lost my royal-blue North Face Borealis backpack yesterday around 3pm near the La Salle Co Library on Main Street. It's a 28-liter bag in decent condition, with a gray bottom panel and a couple of scratches from daily use; the zipper pulls have small red tabs. The front pocket has a pink enamel panda keychain clipped to the zipper, and there's a faint coffee stain on the front and a tag inside that reads 'Property of Priya'. Inside are my laptop charger and a worn notebook; it means a lot to me because it was a gift from my sister, and I really need 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.
