Description
I lost my gray tote bag yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart entrance on Route 52 in Beckley. It's a medium-sized nylon tote with a bright pink lining and a red zipper pull, and there’s a tiny panda-face keychain dangling from the zipper. A small sewn-on patch on the front says Be KIND. Inside the bag I had a spiral notebook, my phone charger, and a framed photo of my late grandmother — it means a lot to me. It would mean the world to get it back since the bag was a gift and carries sentimental value; please reach out if you found it in Beckley or nearby Southern WV.

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.
