Description
Hi, I’m Avery Collins. I lost a bag with my tank accessories—the heater, an extra filter, and a bundle of hoses—somewhere along the Glass Beach parking lot in Fort Bragg around 6:15 PM last Friday. I had pulled over to snap a quick photo and must have forgotten it when I got back in the truck. The bag is blue with a white zipper and a small dent in the lid. I rely on these for my aquarium setup, and I’m hoping someone found them and kept them safe somewhere in Mendocino County.

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.
