Several years ago, I owned a dbx 266. Living in a studio apartment with numerous and frequent visitors, I lacked a place to store the key to my safe, so I opened it up, taped the key inside, and reaffixed the lid. No one was the wiser, and three years later, I had forgotten about it (having no need to open my safe in such a long time) and sold the unit on ebay.
Having realized what I'd done two weeks after shipping the item to its buyer, I frantically emailed and telephoned him, only to get no response. I even sent a paper letter to him via certified mail, which was returned unopened.
I've bought over 40 dbx 266 units since then, hoping against hope that one or another would contain my key. None so far have, and each unit in turn was given to a local recording facility with an agreement that they would not resell their 266, complicating the search for my key.
The safe itself contains bank details of my father, a Nigerian prince, who upon passing away was revealed to hold a sum of thirteen million dollars (USD 13,000,000) stored in a Swiss bank account. The account number and security code for this account are locked in my safe, and as they are written on old and fragile paper, any attempt to torch or drill open the safe would destroy this document.
Your dbx 266 and the key which may be inside are my last hope. Please help me return my father's funds. Should we recover this bank account, you will immediately be disbursed three million dollars (USD 3,000,000) for your assistance in this matter. Time is of the essence, so please return my correspondence at the earliest possible time that may be convenient to you.
I thank you highly for your consideration of this matter and remain yours truly,
Drew
That was really good.
