<p>Usually you say 1. 我钱包拉/丢/忘（在）出租车里了 or 2.我把钱包拉/丢/忘（在）出租车里了。</p>

<p>In 1, '我钱包' equals to '我的钱包'('My wallet') which is the subject and the verb is in passive but'被'is omitted. The grammatical expression could be 我钱包被拉/丢/忘（在）出租车里了，but no one would say out '被'here.</p>

<p>In 2, you use '把' as @wuyefeibao suggested and 我 is the subject, the verb being used in active voice.
In both cases, the preposition 在 may be omitted, indicating the urgent situation when you're anxious and depressed so you have no mood to speak out every function word.</p>

<p>Regarding your own translations 1. 丢了我钱包在出租车里 and 2. 留了我的钱包在出租车里 3. 忘了我的钱包在出租车里 are not target-like expressions. In translation 2, 留 is not the same as 忘，丢, implying you intentionally left the bag in the car (because you didn't want to carry it with you, or you wanted to give it a gift to the driver, lol?).</p>

<p>In English "leave" has two meanings:</p>

<p><strong>1) Stay something at some place because of carelessness or without notice.
2) Put something in some place on purpose.</strong></p>

<p>Just depends on your real situation contents. (However, I prefer 1th meaning, so I'd say "我不慎把包包落在车里了。")</p>
