Subject: DEAREST FRIEND
Dearest amarjit singh,
Hope this finds you in the best frame of mind. I sent a mail to you pleading that you should contact the Security Company in whose custody my consignments of funds are placed but I have not recieved any respose from you ever since to know if you have contacted them or not.
Please respond to let me know the situation of things between you and the Security Company. In case you have not contacted them, please do so and get back to me.
Write to them as soon as you can and let them know you are the one I have chosen as the beneficiary to my consignments in their custody.
I shall be grateful if you can do this project for my sake. I await your soonest response as I pray the good almighty should grant you all your heart desires.
Regards
Kalim Durak
