The sole purpose of posting these emails is for those who might also receive one and think it is a real opportunity. If you always keep in mind that Legitimate offerings do not sent out randomly to strangers, then you will not get caught up in what could end up being a money laundering or parcel shipping scheme. Here’s the email and pertinent information.
Please note several things:
#1 I did not reformat the email. Most ‘business’ or ‘professional’ companies use ‘business’ format and etiquette, they don’t just bunch everything in one paragraph.
#2 In this particular email, the scammer does not even give his/her name
#3 No legitimate company is going to be satisfied with your just providing a few personal details. There is always an official application to be submitted for review, interviews, etc, be it on line or off line
#4 The ‘position’ is the typical, red flags.

You COULD report something like this to the appropriate ISP, as in this case, it would be Gmail, but these scammers know it is not long before they will get shut down, so they send out the mail, hope to get a few victims and then go on to create a new email address and go again. I’d recommend just deleting it.
Be safe.
