I am posting here as I have received a similar scam attempt. Thankfully I have not taken the bait all the way. This is a fairly sophisticated scam, as can be attested to below. This scam started through a seemingly legitimate job post on Indeed.com. I submitted my resume and waited to hear back.

The first response I received phished for mostly unimportant information. Though they did request a photo copy of some form of ID. It seemed odd but I complied... so the scammers did manage to get that. (I will never fall for that again). But the perpetrators are refining their methods from the other posts below. So please be extra careful.

The scammers email is VERY close to the company email now: "@premier-oilplc.com"
They have also gone onto LinkedIn and gotten current real names for upper level employees working for the real company. In my case they used HR director: Mike Fleming, as the sender's name.

While the offered wage was an easy give away... half of my previous annual salary, every month! I will not say that was the final straw that warned me off, but it did get me investigating. In desperate times people can overlook the obvious, and yes some times out of pride and greed. Upon investigation obviously I uncovered the truth, but see below for actual communication used: I hope this helps to protect others.
