Lost iphone 5c/ Black Case

Dublin 1 Lost listing Posted over 9 years ago

Description

I'm here studying abroad and lost my phone in Dublin near The Academy or possibly on the 66 Dublin bus. It's on airplane mode since I'm from overseas. Thank you for any and all help. It's a white iphone 5c in a black plain case. It has a picture of me and my dog as the lock screen and has no passcode.

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
  • Garda stations, cafĂ© 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 asking your local Garda station for advice first.
Keep communication on Lost.ie
  • 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, PPS numbers, or copies of your ID.
