Black wireless earbuds in matte charging case
Description
I lost my black wireless earbuds yesterday around 3pm in the Beckley Mall parking lot behind Belk on Prince Street, in Southern WV. The charging case is matte black, about the size of a small pack of gum, and has a visible scratch along the lid. One earbud has a red silicone tip, the other is all black; they pair to my Samsung phone and auto-connect when I’m driving. They were a gift from my sister last Christmas, so they feel sentimental; I really need them back for daily calls and work. If someone found them, I’d recognize the case by the lid scratch and the red-tip earbud.

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.
