Description
Last night around 7:45 PM I realized my bag with two devices was missing outside the Medford Public Library, near the downtown plaza. I had just finished a quick meeting at a cafe and walked toward my car when I noticed the bag was gone from the bench by the entrance. The bag is a black, soft-sided tote with a blue zipper pull; inside are a silver laptop and a tablet, plus their chargers. I’m anxious because these are my work tools and they hold personal files and photos. If you found it, please contact me through the site so we can arrange a safe return.

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.
