Black Samsung T7 256GB external SSD with panda sticker
Description
I found a black Samsung T7 256GB external SSD this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the Grand Traverse Mall on US-31 in Traverse City, Northern Michigan. It’s housed in a scratched satin aluminum case with a blue silicone sleeve and a panda sticker on the front. The attached USB-C cable is present, and there’s a small dent on the bottom edge, but it otherwise looks clean and powered up when I checked. I know these drives can have sentimental or work value, so I’d be glad to reunite it with its owner. If this is yours, please use the app to connect and verify ownership.

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.
