Blue VSU student ID card with photo
Description
I lost my blue Valdosta State University student ID yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on North Ashley Street in Valdosta. It’s a blue plastic card with the VSU logo in the corner and my photo on the right, wearing a gray hoodie. The back has a small coffee stain near the magnetic strip and a tiny dog sticker I slapped on there last semester—nice and easy to spot. The card is a bit bent from living in my wallet, and I really need it back to get into the library, dorms, and the student portal. If someone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back—it's more than just an ID, it’s my access for class check-ins and printing in the lab.

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.
