Description
I lost my CDs last night around 7:15 PM after studying at the University of Southern Mississippi campus. I had them in a black wallet tucked into my backpack, a mixed batch of classic rock and indie with a few scratched cases. I think I left them somewhere in the USM library courtyard, near the glass doors that overlook the quad, on my way to the campus coffee shop. I’ve retraced my steps and asked the front desk, but nothing turned up yet. It’s frustrating because those discs carry memories of recent road trips and late study sessions.

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.
