The tone created by the concluding sentences, "we appreciate your efforts. Thank you for your attention to this matter," is best described as **friendly but serious**. The use of gratitude ("we appreciate your efforts") adds a friendly touch, while addressing the issue of an inaccurate social media campaign indicates a serious context that requires attention and adherence to procedures.
