Description
I’m hoping someone picked up my black Ray-Ban Wayfarer-style specs. They’re a black rectangular frame with gold metal hinges, medium size, and the right temple is engraved with 'J.T.' inside. I lost them yesterday around 3pm near the Destiny USA food court entrance by GameStop in Syracuse, NY. The lenses have a tiny scratch on the left edge and a faint smudge on the right—easy to spot if you’re searching. They’re sentimental: a gift from my grandmother, and I really need them back. If you found them, please get in touch. I’d be forever grateful to get them home.

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.
