As a student who is about to graduate and seek my first full-time job, I really doubt about this job position when I saw the replied email and want to know whether my feeling is right.
First I receive a message sent on indeed saying that they reviewed my CV submitted to their "Accounting Clerk" position and requested me to reply to his or her working email to discuss the detail about it. The email that the person asked me to reply did look like a working email to me since it is in the format "last name. first name@aol.com". I replied to that email address but got a reply from another completely different email address with the format "name4@bitcoincapitalcorp.in" and this reply appeared in the "spam" category of my Gmail account.
Since I found that Gmail even marked email from Linkedin as spam, I still read the content of the email and started to feel that it is probably not a real position at all. The email said the "Accounting Clerk" position is offered by a company called "First Bitcoin Capital Corp" and attached an application form as well a job description word document. I searched the company online and did found their website that has the same logo appeared in the job description. They also have an account on Linkedin with the same website that I found online.
However, the job description said that it does not report to anyone or even do not require me to appear at a certain office location. All I need to do is checking incoming email every day in my free time and the salary will start with a certain amount plus "5% of each completed money transfer". The first-month salary will between $3300 to $3900 then the monthly salary will become $4489.
The application form and the job description document are all in good format and look formal but the description really let me feel this position is probably a spam. The email also said if I could not open the application form, I can directly reply the email with my personal information like name, address, birthday and phone number, which is exactly the same with another real spam that almost got me in during last semester and it is another reason that I seriously doubt the job position.
Again I just want to see whether my feeling about this job position is right. If anyone has any opinion or advice on how to identify or avoid job spams, it will be great to share it with others in the answer.
Sorry for the length of this question...I want to provide details about this so I write a lot and hope it won't take too long for reading it.

You will be assisting with fraud and money laundering, they will maybe even scam you out of your own money.
