Matte black 28-inch Samsonite suitcase
Description
I lost my matte black 28-inch Samsonite hard-shell suitcase yesterday around 3pm near the OSU Student Union on University Ave in Stillwater. It's in decent condition but has a small dent on the lower-right corner and a scuff along the front edge. The name tag shows faded red initials JH on a white tag, and there's a bright red TSA zipper tag attached. Inside are a few family photos and a navy hoodie I was wearing that day. It means a lot to me—it's part of a family trip planned for next month and holds sentimental value, so I’d really appreciate getting it back. If anyone found it, please reach out and I’ll come pick it up ASAP.

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.
