Description
I lost my white plastic campus ID card with a purple crest yesterday around 3pm. It's the standard card size, with a slight bend along the bottom edge and a tiny coffee stain on the back; the name on it reads 'Avery Chen'. I last had it while walking through the Central Market area on North Queen Street, just outside the Lancaster Public Library. This card is my library and dorm access badge, so it's essential and I really need it back. If you found it, please message me—I can verify ownership and offer a small reward.

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.
