Description
I was wandering around downtown Allentown yesterday around 3pm, near the PPL Center on 7th Street, when I realized my navy hoodie was gone. It's a size M, cotton-poly blend, with a bright white Nike swoosh on the chest and a tiny embroidered mountain patch on the left sleeve. The interior is soft gray fleece, and the drawstrings have white tips. There's a faint coffee stain near the front pocket and a bit of pilling on the cuffs from daily wear. This hoodie means a lot to me—it was a gift from my grandmother, and I really hope it shows up.

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.
