Yes jots28, it certainly sounds highly suspicious!
Looking at the main body of text and there are several glaring grammar errors. Also the phone number at the bottom of the letter begins with 4470. This is a sure sign the sender is fraudulant.
If you scroll to the top of this page, the search function is on the right hand side. By typing in 4470 and then clicking the search button, it quickly shows the forums are littered with these redirect numbers.
I wish it was better news for you, but sadly it is a scam I believe.

thank you jolly_roger =)

I am a very busy man and so to my wife,

His wife is a busy man?
Apart from the phone number, it wasn't written by someone whose first language is English, and the pay is ridiculously high.
