Compliments of the day,
My name is Joseph Ejercito Estrada (jr), I am the last of the children of the deposed president of Philippine who was accused of stacking millions of Dollars in foreign private accounts. Though this is an inglorious act, it is dis-heartening to discover that the very people who fed fat from my father's benevolence and turned around to stab him in the back like Brutus to Caesar are still the same people who have converted all that my father struggled to get to themselves and their families. It is even worse to know that 70% of his nuclear family has equally turned their back on him. I wonder if this is his destiny as his father had rejected him, which forced him to adopt Estrada as his name.
We have suffered humiliations from the public, relatives, elder ones and my stepmother; we had sold all that we had including the house that my father bought for my mum. We had gone to our step mother and elder ones several times but they have consistently denied the fact that we are their brothers and have several times demanded a DNA test from us.
Faith smiled on us recently when we discovered that my father had made adequate provision for us. He had deposited the sum of US$9.4 Million (nine million, four hundred thousand united States Dollars only) with an alias (Jose Velarde) in a private vault in Netherlands, Europe, and I have all documents of deposit with me. We have been deliberating on how to invest this fund abroad in a confidential manner until we came to a conclusion to use it to buy estates and part of it will be used for the Tsunami Victims in Indonesia while the other will be kept for my elder brother to run for the next election in our local council, at least this will give us a face lift.
I got your contact from the internet during the course of my search for a reliable foreigner who will assist me in receiving this fund and investing it in real estate as we have decided. As it will not be possible for us to do it anyone or ourselves from this country as Gloria Arroyo is constantly nosing around to get information that will enable her further prosecute my father.
We shall discuss terms once you are ready to assist in this regard.
We await your response.
Joseph Ejercito(Jr)
