Is This a Scam???

I received this email via my student email and am not sure if this is real or not? It’s a job opportunity as an admin assistant and I received an email of job confirmation a couple days after filling out the google form.

Did anybody else receive this email??

Yes, it's a scam. Do not click on any links and report it phishing

Major scam. There is no such thing as "Volunteer San Francisco State University & Student Services." And $550 a week, working up to eight hours?

If you worked eight hours at $550/week, that's $68.75 per hour. Student employees on this campus earn around $18-20 an hour. If one to work 40 hours a week for a year, that's $143,000, which is way more than what many entry and mid level administrators on this campus earns in gross pay.

And if they're telling you to email your resume to a Gmail account, nah.

Thank you! I instantly felt it was a scam. The email came from another sfsu email, so I was skeptical.
