I just got this same e-mail today.  It is a huge scam.  My wife was looking for a job and she received this same e-mail 1 year ago.  She got involved and they sent her a cashiers check for $7800 and told her she can keep 30%.  We took the check to our bank and they said that they would cash it, but we told them to put a hold on it until it cleared.  The check came back as a fake and we had the cops at our house.  The person that mailed the check started to call us and threaten us.  The phone calls continued for almost 2 months.  It was a man with a very thick accent.  DO NOT GET INVOLVED WITH THESE PEOPLE.  You can trace the e-mail address and get their computer IP address from where their e-mail was established and the computer address was traced to Sunnyvale, california.  Save yourself any headaches and ignore any e-mails that use a free e-mail service ( i.e. yahoo, aol, live, hotmail, etc).  A real business uses a private e-mail system.
