Description
I was walking west on 9th Street outside the Wichita Falls Public Library around 3:20 p.m. today when I spotted a black leather folder with several passports peeking out. I picked it up and checked, noticing it had been misplaced by someone traveling soon. I can only imagine the worry of the person who misplaced them—IDs, travel plans, and urgent documents all in one bag. I'm holding onto them safely and posted them here so the owner can claim them through the site. If this belongs to you, please respond here via the site so we can coordinate.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
