Description
I lost my charcoal Travelon passport holder yesterday around 3pm near the Blacksburg Library on Main Street. It's slim, about the size of a passport, with an RFID-blocking pocket inside and a slightly worn zipper. Unique marks: a tiny red thread in the zipper pull and a small fox sticker on the inner cover. Inside I kept my passport, a debit card, and a laminated travel itinerary. It has sentimental value — it was a gift from my grandmother for our trip last year. If you found it, I would really appreciate getting it back—reach out to [email protected].

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.
