The "from" address used in this scam contains a domain name that does not exist. I've received several copies using various reply addresses. It's probably an Advance Fee Fraud scam, meaning that the job offer is bait, and the hook is that they are going to ask you to pay some kind of fee. There is no job, and these people do not represent this company (if it exists at all): it's just a lie they use to con people into sending them money.

Hello.
I am from Romania.
Today in the morning I've received an e-mail, exactly like the one with "AMAX OIL GAS INC."
For the first time I've read it, it looks suspicious.
I've answer to it with some general information...and they've answered to me with a LETTER OF AGREEMENT.
:-(
Such a big words...
:-))
Thank U for remind us about SCAM.

It's a scam, folks. Don't get involved.
Dear All

Hi All,
This is definately a scam, I also received this morning the very same e-mail. I won't even reply to this, I almost got caught for a sucker last week with a Yahoo Lottery. Can you believe it, luckily my eyes opened quickly and I stopped it before it went too far. Be carefull guys & gals, they are out to get the innocent.
Kind regards
NOT THAT EASY, SOUTH AFRICA
Hi guys
These scamsters buy / acquire mailing lists which they work through to find unsuspecting suckers. Beware anything that looks to easy. My rule of thumb is if I don't know the sender I delete without question.
