Company Representative scams, Payment Processing scams and other Employment scams.

Hello, a few days ago, I posted my resume at jobsites online and two days later an "employer" sent me what he calls a 'conditional job contract.' The content of the email and the attached job contract follows. It seems legitimate but I googled the name of the person who contacted me "Jerry Lewis" and I found people who received other emails from that name but different email addresses and websites. Anyway, I hope you could help me figure this out. The website is asking me to register for a TOEFL and GMAT from their website only, and nowhere else. Also, the offer seems too good to be true. Here are the contents of the email and the attachment:

Welcome to Scamwarners xamismom.

It could be Jerry Lewis the comedian, though I believe he passed away sadly.

The first problem is that they speak French in Martiniique and their real websites are in French, and you'd have to speak French if you wanted to work there.

I love this bit.

http://www.martiniquegeneralhospital.com/services.php

Dedicated "to the glory of God and the service of mankind, MARTINIQUE GENERAL HOSPITAL opened in 2005. MGH soon made headlines with such milestones as the first successful heart transplantation, the first artificial heart implantation, and the first laser angioplasty procedure.


Even I know this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_transplantation

... the world's first adult human heart transplant was performed by Christiaan Barnard in South Africa utilizing the techniques developed and perfected by Shumway and Richard Lower.[3] Barnard performed the first transplant on Louis Washkansky on December 3, 1967 at the Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town South Africa.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_heart#First_clinical_applications_of_a_permanent_pneumatic_total_artificial_heart

First clinical implantation of a total artificial heart

On April 4, 1969, Domingo Liotta and Denton A. Cooley replaced a dying man's heart with a mechanical heart inside the chest at The Texas Heart Institute in Houston


The fake hospital wasn't even open at the time these events took place. :=)

They also don't appear to know their own name.

The scammer's website is better than the real one, but it doesn't make it any more real. Note the real one is in French.

The web site is in the process of being reported for fraud.

It is ALWAYS a scam
If the pet seller or shipper asks for money to be sent via Western Union, Money Gram, any brand of gift card. Walmart To Walmart , Zelle , PayPal friends and family option, or mentions Cameroon

As Boycey mentioned, people in Martinique speak French, so a TOEFL would make no sense for a job there. Martinique is a DOM of France, and it is difficult to get into France. You have to go to the French consulate in person, which for me would mean a 400 km road trip to another state.

The domain was registered this month for one year. Who builds a hospital intending it to stay in operation for only one year?
