Tommy Peacock Pays You $187000 E-mail Scam

Tommy Peacock might be a treasure hunter or some sort of magician. He sends e-mail to people promising the recipients $187,000 which can be picked at any Western Union outlet.

The email also states that if the recipient wants to receive his or her money they need to get a Western Union Promo Card. In order to get one, certain information must be sent through e-mail.

He asks for name, money transfer control number, telephone number and address. Peacock also provides an e-mail address of a Western Union agent to whom people should send their information.

The e-mail also mentions that Peacock is on his way to Chile to complete a bridge project, so he won't be around to reply to e-mails.

So be aware and don't let this Mr. Peacock fool you!
