"A.R.T. Logistics" fake job offer

There may be various genuine companies in the world with a name similar to "A.R.T. Logistics Industrial & Trading Ltd", but this job offer does not come from a genuine company. Instead it is trying to recruit people for money laundering ("money mule") jobs and parcel reshipping scams (a way of laundering stolen goods). Note that the scammers aren't even consistent in the way they name the company.

The link in the email goes through a legitimate hacked site to [donotclick]xree.ru/?contactus but then it redirects to a seemingly random fake pharma site. However, the redirect only works if you have the referrer set correctly.

The landing sites are on:
199.59.56.59 (Hostwinds, Australia)
209.236.67.220 (WestHost Inc, US)

I can't find any malware on these sites, but you may as well block them if you can as they seem to have a lot of domains on them:
