Description
At 6:45 p.m. last Tuesday, I left the SUNY Plattsburgh gym after a cardio class and realized my gym bags were missing from the rack near the front desk. One bag is gray with a red zipper and a neon-yellow carabiner; the other is black with a white stripe. I retraced my steps through the lobby and out toward Clinton Street, asking staff and a couple of other gym-goers, but no one saw anything. I’m worried about the clothes and gear inside, and I’m hoping someone who picked them up kept them safe near the Plattsburgh YMCA or the park across Clinton Street.

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.
