Lost work cases near Durham Station
Description
I lost my work cases on Friday around 5:45 PM as I was leaving the Durham Station area near the south entrance and the coffee cart. I had just grabbed a quick latte and hurried onto the platform, and when I turned back the cases were gone. They’re two slim black leather cases with a few pockets and a small red sticker on one corner. I'm anxious about the documents inside and the disruption to my schedule. If you found them or saw someone leave them, I’d be grateful to know they're safe. I hope a kind soul turned them in at the station desk in Raleigh / Durham / CH, North Carolina, United States.

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.
