Description
I realized my ties were missing at 3:30 p.m. last Sunday, after I ducked into a coffee shop on Tryon Street and headed toward the Bank of America Stadium area in uptown Charlotte. They’re a simple navy with a subtle diagonal stripe, not fancy, but they’re my go-to for interviews and important events. I’m a bit rattled, walking past Trade Street and near Romare Bearden Park as crowds swell, hoping someone turned them in at a cafe or a passing store. I’d be relieved to have them back; if you found them, I hope you can bring them to the site so I can pick them up.

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.
