Tap Oil : is this a scam??

ABOUT TAP OIL.

Tap Oil Limited is an independent oil & gas exploration and production company with interests in Australia and South East Asia. Headquartered in Perth, Western Australia, Tap was incorporated on 14 March 1995 and subsequently listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX:TAP) in September 1996. At the time, Tap’s primary asset was 12.2229% of the Harriet oil and gas fields obtained from Marubeni Oil. In 1997, Tap farmed into WA-234-P and participated in the Woollybutt exploration well, resulting in a commercial oil discovery. Commissioned in 2003, the Woollybutt field has exceeded expectations and produced 29 million barrels of oil from an estimated 40 million barrels ultimately recoverable. In 2010 Tap was formally awarded a significant interest in Offshore Accra Contract Area by the government of Ghana. Later in the year Tap acquired 75% of Northern Gulf Petroleum Pte Ltd, which holds a 40% interest three concessions in north and central Gulf of Thailand (G3/48, G1/48, G6/48). In addition, Tap has acquired a significant offshore acreage position in the Australian North West Shelf and intends to continue a measured exploration and development program over the coming years.

Sincerely,
Recruiter

This is the same exact emails I recently received from someone claiming to work for a legitimate Oil Company in Australia. I looked up the guy on google and said he left the company last year. He is also on LinkedIn. Sent him a message today telling him someone was using his name and ex employer in some type of scam, have not heard back. I was asked to do the same stupid assignments. I also asked him to connect with me on linkedin so I would know he was legit said he would try when he had time. Really? What can I do to report this dirty dude. I am so tired of getting the scam emails, I was stupid enough to have been scammed before why do I even read them. How can we catch these criminals?

I received a similar e-mail yesterday. Just replace the Tap Oil with Strike Energy, and you have the same message. I did endure the 2 hour long interview via Google Hangout. A few things stuck me as odd. I like to do a bit of company research before I am interviewed. I only found that there was a company in Canada and in Australia. Nothing where I lived. He asked what e-mail I preferred and then sent me the letter with the job description. I read the description and he asked if I was able to perform these tasks. They seemed simple enough, so I said i could. here is the other odd part. We were not just 5 minutes into the conversation and he asked if I preferred check or direct deposit. I wondered to myself as to why I would be asked this so soon in the process, but I just let it rest in the back of my head and said direct deposit. He proceeded to ask me many more standard interview questions. Then he said that he was going to forward the information to the board of directors. That again seemed odd. After about 30 minutes, he responded and said I had the position. Which made me wonder. How could I get a position based upon a messenger interview? No background check? Just a question of what bank I used " to see if it tallies with the company's official salary department". It is a very large bank with heavy security, so I let them know. He then said that my training will start tomorrow and we will meet then to start training. So that is what led to do some more research. I followed a website's advice and cut and pasted some of the content in the letter into google. Came up with this post.

Please post the website URL they are now using. If they're using their own email domain to send email, post the message they sent with complete headers.

I was contacted this morning and answered all his questions, just as you all did. He claimed to find me on Indianacareerconnect.com. Interview was done through hangouts. After 30 min of waiting, he offered the job.
