Notes:
This guy sent me 3 Postal Money Orders that where fake, I took them to the USPS and they looked at them and took them for evidence, The guy that said his name was Peter Thomas said that he wanted me to put them in my bank and take out $500.00 for my weekly pay, here is the e-mail he sent me

I want you to know that im a man of great dignity and respect, i can never venture in any act of scam, just try and have the full trust in me. I just got a confirmation from one of my client that a payment has been sent to you. I was told you were sent Three pieces of USPS Money Order, the amount on each is NINE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-FIVE DOLLARS Each (985 dollars) Totaling Two Thousand Nine Hundred And Fifty-Five Dollars ($2,955). It will be coming via UPS and you will be receiving it today. Here is the tracking number for you to confirm it. Have it deposited into your bank account, when it clears, deduct your first week pay ($500) and have the balance send out to my secretary here in Philippines. We will be needing it to plan for our next photo exhibition and Organize our next teachings on photography coming up in San Diego California. This will be coming up in two weeks. So i will need you to send out the rest of the funds through western union money transfer. I would have prefer you wire the funds through bank account but since its urgent and using Western Union is instant which he can get the funds as soon as you send it. I will be sending you the funds for the office equipment soon after you have done with this task.
