Healthy Wealthy

Is this an Employment Scam?
I saw an ad on campus which offered a data entry position making $300+ weekly from the comfort of my home. I emailed the guy and he is requesting a $9 processing fee, which in my opinion sounds fishy. I read somewhere that you should never have to pay for a job….

I also included the email we exchanged,
What do you guys think?

That really really sounds like a scam. I know people who have gotten management positions and don’t have to pay to apply, that’s just crazy. He kept saying the same thing over and over, while giving no helpful information. I would forget about it. Sounds just like some scam websites I’ve read trying to sell you something.
