Subject: hey
Your slowness to responding to my emails does not show seriousness. I have
sent you emails and no reply from you? Please I just want us to move ahead.
Maybe you are no longer interested, I am time conscious and what I do, I do
not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, I
cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control
of my destiny. These chances won't pass me by.I ask that you do not destroy
my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with
my life but do not destroy the chance by delaying me.I am a family man and
this is an opportunity to provide them with new opportunities. There is a
reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking. I have
evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to
work with me and alerting someone else. I am the only one who knows of this
situation, good fortune has blessed you with a name that has
planted you into the center of relevance in my life.Let?s share the blessing
please do not hesitate.
If you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a
conclusion
waiting anxiously for signals,
jax
