(Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images)Uber had just released its 2023 Lost And Found Index and you won't believe the type of items riders leave behind in the ride sharing company.
Astrologists say the phenomenon has a lot to do with how the planets are aligned. They say it's the time of the year that influences forgetfulness. Uber reports the index is based on missing item reports filed by passengers. But, all is not lost. You can use a feature within the app to report lost items and to contact drivers to have them returned. This feature does include a cost. It's $15 and covers the driver's time and effort.
