Something made you think it was a scam though. You wouldn't have posted here otherwise.
So listen to that doubt that made you post and the amount of people telling you it is 100% a scam. Just delete the email and move on.
Hopefully this thread will mean no one else falls for this either if they look up the company.0 -

I also received this job offer and can tell you it is 100% a scam, confirmed by Total Jobs after I contacted them about the dodgy email from one of their supposed recruiters. Total Jobs and my email provider are now pursuing the scammers.0

I know you're trying to help, but I posted that over 2 weeks ago.
Anyway, Russia is an entire country so I don't see why you'd say it's a scam place. Scams take place there like anywhere else. There are plenty of legit businesses and genuine people there too.0 -

on your JOB_OFFER.doc, at the end, there is a photo (supposedly from Raymond Clair - Employment Manager of the DouglasFinancial).
The photo belongs, in fact, to Dr. Szentes Tam!s.
Please, have no doubt that this is a scam. Block sender and never look back.0 -
