Gray silicone key fob with car and house keys
Description
I lost my gray silicone key fob with a car key and a house key yesterday around 3pm near Grand Central Terminal, in the main concourse by the information desk on 42nd Street. The fob is chunky and a bit worn, and the keys include a Honda car key with a blue sticker showing the initials LP—there’s also a small dent on the chrome ring of the car key. The set has sentimental value for me because it was the last gift from my grandmother, and I really need it back to unlock my apartment and drive my car. If anyone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back; you can drop it at the Grand Central Lost & Found desk or pass it to the information kiosk nearby.

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.
