Recently got an email about a job position from Monster.com?

I just posted my resume on monster.com yesterday. This morning, I got an email about a job opening for a financial service agency manager position from Farmers. Is this a scam or should I reply her? The job and the paid is very attractive, but I have never worked as a manager before. I am a recently college graduate. I had worked in as an administrative assistant for 5+ years. Should I reply or just wait for other job offering? ---------------------- Hi, I work with Farmers District Manager, David Oyler.

1. Dont you apply for that job, I got the same offer:) if you catch my drift
2. Hi, Just checked their website out http://farmersteam77.com/ Looks like a sales agent job to sell insurance policies. Is that what you were looking for? The salary will be exaggerated because it will commission based. No harm in contacting them to find out more. But tread very carefully. Don't give them any money.
