This one was listed on CareerBuilder.com - absolutely a scam, falling into the category of "If it sounds too good to be true it probably is." Save this message as an example for your files.
One should be very careful of jobs on either careerbuilder.com or monster.com with a location of "Location - US Nationwide". Someone had to pay to put an ad on these websites and they most probably get their money back many times over when someone pays their fee - in this case the rather large fee of $97.00.
I've copied the add from Career Builder here as an example of what not to respond to:
