Description
On Friday at 7:15 p.m., I found a small hard-shell case tucked behind a bench near Waterfront Park in Charleston. Inside were several GPS devices with tangled charging cables. I brought them home and kept them safe on the kitchen counter, hoping the owner will see this listing and claim them soon. The case is black with a blue zipper and looks fairly new, which makes me think someone was rushing to keep their gadgets safe. It’s not easy to lose track of devices, and I’d like to see them back with their rightful owner.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
