and here is the 'job description':

JOB DESCRIPTION
Position: Operations Clerk
Type: Home Based | Part Time | Online Office
Salary: 2740$/month [32 880$/year]
Hours: 15-20 hours/week
Probationary Period Offer:
14 days; 5% for every completed order.
To become an Operations Clerk you must have good organizational skills and be able to work
under deadline pressure. The Operations Clerk holds a primary management position in a
business. The Operations Clerk’s duties affect the profitability of the business.
COMPANY SERVICES OVERVIEW
Primepaid is the company which provides such services as financial risk management, insurance
and reinsurance brokerage, consulting in labor power resource and out-tasking.
JOB DUTIES
 Plan, direct, coordinate the
operations with customers;
 Receive/Send payments;
 Keeping accurate records of
operations.
JOB ACTIVITIES
We sometimes have customers that owe us
funds and pay us in financial instruments
cashable only in the local area. Since we
work all over the world, it is much easier for
our customers to transfer money to our
Operations Clerk who are in the same area.
After receiving funds Operations Clerk must
record information about transfer and
report. Then send money to one of our
branches.
WHY DO WE NEED OPERATIONS CLERK? WHAT DOES IT GIVE US?
 Reduces % of taxes (avoiding double taxation);
 Reduces expenses for offices maintenance (as Operations Clerk is an official company's
representative, so the construction and maintenance of the office is not required);
 Number of clients is increased (as many customers can't make an international money
transfer);
 Our service is increased (as the international transfer needs about 5 days to reach our
central office and then a couple of days to reach the performers branch. Consequently, it
slows down our work significantly. It'd be much faster if Operations Clerk receives the
money and directs them to the appropriate department/branch. This is how we reduce
terms of payments expectation and can provide a service to the customer more promptly).
QUALIFICATIONS REQUIREMENTS
 High school diploma or GED;
 Strong communication skills to be able to communicate with internal customers, vendors
and management;
 Solid analytical and problem solving skills;
 Strong planning and organizational skills to balance and prioritize work;
 Good computer skills;
 Solid working knowledge of Microsoft Office suite of products.

I believe this is a money laundering scam. I can't find out much about them online at all.

I too just received an email with a job offer. Thankfully I know to check any random offers on site and deleted the offending email.
I will, of course, not advise them that they are being looked at for this dishonest practice. Hopefully they will be charged for what is a despicable scam preying on those of us that are trying to find gainful employment.
We send out so many resume's in the course of our search that we loose track of who and what we have applied for.
