Questionable Job Offers
This offer sounds to good to be true and I am not even sure it is real. I know there are a lot of fake offers out there on the market. But this company can't even provide an address of where they are located or any real information about the job. Below is the job description and it don't tell you much, see for yourself I can't even find the company listed anywhere on the internet. BE CAREFUL!!!!!!!! And another thing how many companies offer you a salary and put the dollar sign after the amount?

Wow Kenneth, good call, that sure looks scammy to me! The fact that they don't mention the name of the company is mega shady, and you're totally right, the dollar sign after the amount is highly suspect. That paired with the email address it was sent from (eircom.net is an irish domain, but as generic as gmail or hotmail in that you can't verify who sent it), plus the "too good to be true" aspect, and with fact that apparently this job has no qualifications and also doesn't require an interview, I'd say with 100% certainty that you are absolutely right and this is a total scam!
This is a variation on a scam that's been going around for awhile. The scamsters were using the names of legit businesses for a time, but people became wise to the fact that you could contact the company and find out if the job offer was real or not. Now they either completely make up the name of a company (if it's not there you can never verify if it exists or not). Or they place it outside of the US in non-English speaking country. If the victim accepts the position they are then given a 10 question test and/or asked to get on Google Hangout for a video 'interview' ( it should be a BIG warning when they give a personal e mail address instead of a company e mail.). Of course you then get the 'job'. After that they send you a fake check (other warning sign; no legit company would give you money before you complete all the paper work). They then ask you to deposit the check and, before it clears, they ask you to front them money for 'equipment'. Then the check bounces. They get your money and you are left owing the bank money
