job scam...?

I been offered a job position of Payment processing officer from a US company called LKdemark via e-mail. I have searched at the New York state record and I couldn't find anything about this company being registered under this name there. Following email conversations with people from this company, they have sent me information about them such as an application form and then a training schedule all via PDF documents sent via email.
In this training schedule
it explains that you will receive payment into your bank account preferable an empty bank account and with this money you are meant to take £30 as payment a wage and withdraw all the money.
You then call a Personal manager from this company and they will give you details about who you will send the money to via MoneyGram. This is meant to be a part of the training process which you and several other ppl are involved in and you are told that this money is being sent to another person in training.
After sending the money via MoneyGram you are told to contact the "personal manager" who will give you details about how you will receive the money back via Western Union and then be used again for future training sessions.
 
To me this seems all highly suspicious the fact i can not find out where this company is registered to, even after asking via email about this and receiving no reply. The fact the website seems to be only registered within the last 2weeks. Searching google will only bring up their website but no other information about this company. Does anyone else believe this may be a scam?
