Lost wallet or purse — immediate steps

The first moves to make when your wallet or purse goes missing — cards, ID, and protecting yourself from fraud.

A lost wallet or purse in Amarillo means two jobs at once: stopping fraud and replacing what's gone. The first hour matters most.

  1. Freeze your cards. Open each bank's app and freeze or cancel every debit and credit card. Most apps let you lock a card instantly and order a replacement.
  2. Check for unfamiliar activity. Review recent transactions and report anything you didn't make.
  3. Protect your identity. If ID was inside, take steps to guard against identity theft and consider a fraud alert or protective registration.
  4. Replace your ID and licence. Start replacements for your driver's licence or ID card through the relevant authority for your area.
  5. Retrace and report. Contact the last places you visited in Amarillo and report the loss to the police non-emergency line if it may have been stolen.
  6. Post a listing. Add a lost-wallet listing for Amarillo — many wallets are handed in and reunited this way.

Black Ray-Ban Wayfarer glasses with initials JPD

I lost my black Ray-Ban Wayfarer glasses yesterday around 3pm outside the Starbucks on 6th Street in Amarillo, right by the Don Harrington Discovery Center. They're black rectangular Wayfarers with a tiny scratch on the left lens and JPD etched on the inside of the right temple. They're prescription lenses and I rely on them every day, so it's a big deal not having them, especially for driving and reading menus. If you happened to see them or picked them up, email me at [email protected]—really hoping they turn up soon.

Lost black rectangular Ray-Ban glasses with scratched lenses near a park bench in Amarillo.

I lost my black rectangular Ray-Ban glasses while walking my dog in the park near Amarillo last Tuesday afternoon. I might have left them on a bench or dropped them on the path. They're quite valuable to me, and they have a few scratches on the lenses but are otherwise in good condition. If anyone has seen them, I would really appreciate getting them back!
