Honesty and Transparency

I am in the process of drafting my letter that I will be sending to absentee owners, and I seem to have run across a snag. (for wholesaling purposes)

I have been told before that I am far too honest for my own good. It hasn't killed me yet, so I think I'll stick with it til it does.

I am borrowing a template from another investor that has shared his letter online, and stumbled upon a piece of information (or lack thereof) that bothers me. It seems as though I'm being dishonest when telling them that I am looking to buy the property myself. I am also totally aware that if I start using words like "investors", "wholesale", or the like, that I may be scaring some people away.

I don't want to scare people, but I also don't want to be a liar. Am I worrying about this too much?

Advice??
