Description
I last saw my sister, Maya Reed, yesterday around 3pm near the Beckley Public Library on Main Street in Beckley. She's about 5 ft 6 in tall, with shoulder-length curly black hair, wearing a bright red puffer jacket, blue jeans, and white sneakers. She has a crescent moon tattoo on the inner left wrist and wears a silver locket; she was carrying a yellow scarf. I'm really worried and just want her safe return; this means a lot to our family.

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.
