Description
I lost my keys yesterday around 3pm in the parking lot behind Cielo Vista Mall in East El Paso, Southwest TX. They’re on a black leather keyring with a red plastic 'Home' tag and a small brass compass charm dangling from it. The set includes several house keys and a Toyota fob; one key has a blue sticker that reads 'Desk' on the back. There’s a faint coffee stain on the leather from this morning’s cup. This set is my lifeline—my apartment and car keys—and I’d really appreciate getting them back!

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.
