Stolen property Crimes are often viewed as minor offenses because property is usually stolen without threats
or violence against the owner. Property Crimes leave people feeling frightened and powerless as they attempt
to deal with the aftermath of such a crime. Insurance companies are often slow to pay and the financial losses
mount as your business, schooling or travel could be affected because of it. Feelings of helplessness and
frustration are experienced because once reported there is usually little or no further communication with police
to help establish the likelihood of recovery. Often property holds a sentimental value which can not be replaced
by money. Most recoveries are made only by chance or public observations.
Stolen or lost is a recently developed and new forum that is bridging the gap between the police and the public
with the goal in mind of minimizing profits of thieves and returning valued items to the owners. With our unique
