Description
Hi there, I’m Emily Lawson. I was in Roanoke last Saturday around 4:15 PM near the Roanoke City Market area when I realized my swimsuits were missing. I had laid them on a bench after a quick water break and turned back to grab sunscreen from the car, but they vanished. They’re a navy one-piece with a tiny white logo and a pink-striped bikini set, both a bit stretched from sun and sand. I’m anxious and a little embarrassed, hoping someone nearby might have seen them and kept them safe. If you found them, please help me reunite them with their owner.

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.
