Description
I lost my brown leather Samsonite briefcase yesterday around 3pm near the Courthouse Plaza on 5th Street in Marysville. It's a medium-sized case with a slightly worn handle, a scuff on the bottom corner, and a red lining that peeks out when you unzip it. Inside are my notebook, a charger, and a small family photo album—it's sentimental and I really need it back. The bag has a brass plate on the front with my initials 'JS' and a tiny dent near the zipper pull. If you found it, send me a message—I think someone may have picked it up near the library entrance by Safeway.

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.
