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 Central Michigan 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 Central Michigan 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 Central Michigan — many wallets are handed in and reunited this way.

Dark brown Coach bifold wallet with red interior

I lost my dark brown Coach bifold wallet yesterday around 3pm near the CMU Student Union on University Ave in Mount Pleasant. It's genuine leather, about the size of a standard bifold, with a red interior lining and a tiny coffee stain on the back corner. There are my driver's license, a couple of debit cards, and about $25 cash inside. The wallet has a small gold Coach logo tag on the inside pocket and a photo of my grandmother tucked in the card slots—sentimental stuff I’d really like back. If someone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Brown Coach wallet with coffee stain

I lost my brown leather Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Main Street in Mount Pleasant, Central Michigan. It's a mid-size bifold, dark brown leather with slightly worn edges and a tiny coffee stain on the back corner. Inside there's a blue lining and a few cards, including my driver's license and two credit cards, plus a small photo of my grandmother. It has sentimental value—she gave it to me years ago—and I’m really hoping to get it back. If anyone found it, email me at [email protected] with any details.

Black Wayfarer-style glasses with red temples

I lost my black Ray-Ban Wayfarer-style glasses yesterday around 3:15 pm near the CMU Union at the campus bookstore on University Avenue in Mount Pleasant. They're prescription glasses, standard size, with a black frame and distinctive red temple tips; there is a tiny dent on the left temple from a light fall last week. I was studying in the coffee shop inside the bookstore when I last had them in hand, and I must have left them on a chair outside. They’re my daily pair and they have sentimental value—my only prescription set, so I’m really hoping someone picked them up. If you found them, please email me at [email protected]; I’d be grateful to get them back.

Lost black leather wallet with personal photos and important cards near the pond at a local park in Central Michigan.

I lost my black leather wallet while visiting the local park in Central Michigan last Saturday afternoon. It has a few personal photos inside and important cards, including my driver's license and bank cards. I last remember having it when I sat down on a bench near the pond, so I’m really hoping someone finds it.

Lost silver wireframe glasses with dark blue scratched lenses near the park in Central Michigan.

I lost my favorite silver wireframe glasses while walking near the park in Central Michigan. I think they slipped off my face or got knocked off while I was adjusting my hat. They have dark blue lenses and are a bit scratched but still in good shape. Please let me know if you find them!
