Description
This morning, around 9:30 a.m., I realized I lost my scarves while walking along Main Street toward the Ventura Pier. The blue patterned scarf is the one I grab on chilly mornings at the farmers market by the promenade. I searched the area around the pier, checked a few shops, and asked a couple of clerks, but no one had seen it. It might sound small, but the scarf feels like a link to my grandmother and a coast trip we took last winter. If someone found it, I’d appreciate it being kept safe until I can reclaim it.

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.
