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 Greensboro 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 Greensboro 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 Greensboro — many wallets are handed in and reunited this way.

Brown Coach wallet with ID and cards

I lost my brown leather Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks at the Friendly Center on Battleground Ave in Greensboro. It's a slim Coach wallet in good condition, dark tan brown with a gold-tone Coach logo plate on the front and a small coffee stain on the back. Inside are my driver's license, several cards, and about $60 in cash. There's a tiny photo of my grandmother tucked in the first card slot. It was a gift from her and means a lot to me. If anyone found it, please message me—I'd really appreciate getting it back.

Black leather Coach wallet with ID

I lost my black leather Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks at Friendly Center on Battleground Ave in Greensboro. It's a slim bi-fold with a gold Coach logo on the front, and there's a tiny coffee stain along the back edge. Inside you'll find my driver's license and a couple of cards; I also kept a small laminated photo of my grandmother tucked in the card slots. It feels sentimental, since she gave me the wallet years ago. If someone found it, email me at [email protected] and we can coordinate a meetup in Greensboro.

Brown Coach leather wallet with ID and cards

I lost my tan Coach bifold wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Shops at Friendly Center on Market Street in Greensboro. It's a tan leather wallet about the size of a typical billfold, with a small coffee stain on the back and a tiny scratch along the left corner. Inside are my driver's license, a couple of credit cards, and about $60; the initials 'A.H.' are embossed in the card slots for quick identification. This wallet was a gift from my grandmother and has sentimental value, so I really need it back; if you find it, message me through the app so we can arrange a quick pickup.
