Description
I was packing up after a practice session yesterday around 3pm and I realized my silver Yamaha flute wasn't in its case. It's a student-model flute, about 16 inches long, with a small dent on the bottom edge and some wear on the keys. The black case has a blue zipper, a faded 'A.B. Music' sticker, and my initials 'P.P.' scratched near the latch; I was near the Cocoa Beach Pier along the Space Coast boardwalk when I last remember it. This flute is sentimental to me—my grandmother taught me to play, and I really need it back. If you found it, shoot me a message.

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.
