Answer 1

This was sent by a scammer.  I get tons of these everyday.  First of all, I don't even open them could contain a virus and second, why would someone contact you about a job if you didn't apply for it?  Sad to say, there are a bunch of loosers out there taking advantage of people in the U.S.

Good thing you asked before jumping in.

Answer 2

SCAM! Delete it! When you Cash that and send them the money,Guess what? Yor Bank calls and tells you that you are reliable for the whole amount! They are Fake Money Orders and Fake checks so for instance if you Deposit it your bank doesn't realize it at first and then next thing you know you are Overdrawn in your account. Stay away from anything like that and delete it.SO many people have done that and Lost Everything they had.Google stuff like that and you will see.I get those in my email once a day.DO NOT DO IT!!!!!!!    Here is a place you can go that is Legit and Free to do to make money....www.cashwrapper.com/?1473    If you are into Online Businesses.
