Set of keys with blue lanyard
Description
Found a set of keys this morning around 7:45am in the parking lot behind the Target on McHenry Avenue in Modesto. They’re on a metal ring with a cracked red plastic tag and a bright blue fabric lanyard, plus a small blue USB drive clipped to the ring. The set includes a silver Ford key with a worn tip and a black house key stamped with 'No. 19'. I didn’t touch any of the locks or the door keys, just picked them up from the pavement near the bike racks. If these are yours, tell me something distinctive about the ring or the keys and I’ll arrange a meetup within Modesto to return them.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
