McMorris Scan Tech

This particular job ad looks like bait for an advance fee fraud scam. In such scams, applicants are readily offered jobs, or at least job interviews, but there are certain fees to be paid up front, such as visa fees. The point of the scam is to extract these payments on the pretext of a job offer. The job does not exist, and the scammer has no connection to the alleged company offering it, assuming that the company isn't a complete fiction in the first place. In this case, the company appears to be fictitious, and there is a facade website (not mentioned in the spam) operating under this name to give it an air of legitimacy. A modest amount of effort has been put into the facade, primarily by plagiarising material from BP. (As evidence, see this Google search, and try searching on other key phrases. BP spouted most of those corporate platitudes first.)
