Sample Answer:

Dear Sir,

I am writing to inform you regarding something really important that I unintentionally left on one of your trains.

My name is Samantha Jackson. On 1st November, I took ‘The Canadian’ from Toronto to Vancouver. Regretfully, while disembarking, I unintentionally forgot my handbag on the seat. My train number is VIA Rail Train 1 (westbound) and VIA Rail Train 2 (eastbound).

The bag I left on the train is a black Micheal Kors Tote Bag that has a smooth leather finish with many pockets. There is also a key chain of my name on one of the zippers. There are various personal belongings within, such as my driver’s license, identity card, and my wallet. To help you identify the suitcase, I have attached a picture of it along with the letter.

I respectfully ask that you locate and safeguard my misplaced luggage by taking the appropriate steps. If you find anything, please let me know as soon as possible at +1 (647) 241 8996 or info@visaethics.com. I am willing to pay any fees involved in getting my items back.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
Samantha Jackson
