Is this another scam?

Do you think this is yet another too good to be true home job opportunity?
I think it is, as it doesn't give a company name (could research it to see the company records if it did) and I think that type of e-mail address given as the contact is usually a scam (and there are spaces in the address). Also, wondering why applicants need to be open-minded lol. This type of work would be ideal for me and it's so frustrating that it's more than likely a scam! Here's the details:-
Job Overview
We have a few positions available for open-minded people looking to earn money as a part-time or full-time job.
We are looking for honest, self-motivated, trustworthy people to join our Business. These positions are perfect for stay at home parents or someone who doesn't work Full-time and has a few extra hours on their hands and would like to earn some extra cash. This credit-crunch is hitting everybody hard, however Marketing Businesses like ours are desperately seeking Data Entry Clerks to work from home.
We require:
- English speaking employees
- Some experience with computers and the ability to type information professionally
- A-C grade in English and Maths
- You must own your own Computer or access to Internet
- Must be dedicated to the Job once started.
Duties and Responsibilities
Times/Hours: This Job requires you to have a few free hours a day, although if you wish to turn it into a full-time Job, then this is up to you. The more work you put in, the more work you can do and therefore the more money you can earn.
What is required from you: All you will have to do is complete Data forms. You will be sent information (via Email) and you have to fill out Data Forms and then send them onto different clients. You will need your own Email account and access to the internet. Whether this be on your own computer in your own home or in an Internet cafe/Library etc.
Skills / Qualifications / Experience Required
Pay/Wage: This depends completely on how much work you put in. Each E-mail completed will earn you £10. 00 so if you only put in a couple of hours work and complete just 5 then you will only earn £50. However if you work for more hours then you will earn however much concerned for however many emails you complete.
Please only reply if you are serious about these Job Positions. If you are interested then please email me at: claire-marie. Work@fsmail. Net with the Subject of: Data Entry Clerk Position.

Almost certainly a scam.They will either ask you for money up front or ask you to process payments from them that have been obtained through Fraud.0

You might find this page from Scamorama of interest. Whilst it doesn't contain this exact offer, it does contain similar ones.
Scamorama is a great site anyway - it plays host to folk who attempt to scam (or at least humiliate) the scammers. Clearly these peeps have too much time on their hands, but it is entertaining.
Stay safe out there people!
