This fake job offer is for a "forwarding agent". What is a forwarding agent? Well, basically it's a parcel reshipping scam where goods bought with stolen credit cards are sent to the "agent's" home address, and then the "agent" forwards to stolen goods on to Eastern Europe or China or whatever. Of course, when the police catch on it's the "agent" who is in deep, deep trouble.
