Chokers lost on Main Street, East Oregon
Description
Hi, I’m Lucas Reed. I lost two chokers on East Oregon’s Main Street yesterday evening. Around 6:30 p.m., I stepped into a small vintage shop near the town clock at East Oregon Plaza to look for a gift, and I left my chokers on the counter while I browsed. A moment later I turned back and they were gone. One is a black velvet choker with a tiny silver charm; the other is lavender satin with rhinestones. They’re meaningful to me—a gift from my sister and a symbol of a rough week I’m trying to get through. If someone found them, please bring them back through the site; I’d be incredibly grateful.

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.
