Description
On Sunday around 3:40 PM, I was at the University of Northern Iowa’s Maucker Union in Cedar Falls, hopping between the coffee shop and the library entrance. I realized my travel adapters were missing from my backpack after I charged my laptop in a quiet corner by the study pods. They’re small, black with a red stripe, and I know I last had them near the library staircase. I’m traveling soon and feel frustrated about replacing them. If someone found them, I’d hope they’re somewhere safe on campus so they can be returned.

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.
