Begin your letter as: Dear Sir or Madam, You should write at least 150 words.

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter to inform you that I received a letter from you
last
week notifying me to acknowledge the acceptance of a new bank
card
but surprisingly, I could not find the
card
in the envelope. I am worried that the
card
may fall out on its way to my home. Somebody might pick it up and misuse it for their benefit. Most importantly, I am concerned that it might be used for payments that are illegal. In
such
a situation, authorities might trace back to my bank account and I might be accused of these illegal activities.
Therefore
, I would like to request you block the missing
card
immediately to prevent possible negative consequences. The longer it takes to block the
card
, the more chances it will be misused.
Furthermore
, could you please send me a new
card
within
this
week? As I have to travel abroad on the coming weekend, I would really need to get it within
this
week. I’m really concerned about
this
unfortunate incident, and I hope you could manage to prevent unnecessary troubles in time. Your prompt support on my requests would be really appreciated. Yours Truly, Zay Yar Myint.
