Description
Today around 3:45 p.m., I realized my day organizers were lost while I was leaving the Clarkson University area in Potsdam. They’re a bundle of blue-bound planners with calendar tabs and a red spine elastic. They’re worn, but they hold my class schedule and weekly reminders, so losing them feels like losing a friend. I think I last had them by the Student Center along Market Street, near Clarkson University, just outside the campus cafe. If someone found them, I’d be grateful to get them back.

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.
