3. Rules for Handing Over Valuables

Thorough Identity Verification

Always verify the recipient's ID (identification) or perform face verification.

When a Third Party is the Recipient

⚠ Important Notice

Even if a third party claims they "know" the owner, handover is NOT allowed unless direct confirmation with the owner is obtained.

If identity cannot be verified, report to an Assistant Manager or higher authority and await instructions.

If the owner has requested a proxy to collect the item, verify the proxy's ID and confirm they are the designated representative.

👔 Assistant Manager and Above Response

  • If the owner is identified, contact them promptly and have them come to collect the item in person
  • If shipping is requested, send via Kuroneko Yamato with cash on delivery (COD)
  • If a third party will collect the item, verify the proxy's information and perform identity verification of the proxy during handover
  • Post progress updates and handover completion reports to Slack's lost-and-found channel
