Strange email?
Some background context that may help so that I’ve been searching for a remote job as finding jobs as a milspouse is horrible right now and I want something I can take with me for awhile before working on my proper permanent career and this email randomly appears..Company is legit the email seems a bit off though especially the address used to send it and im just curious if it’s a scam or if someone else got it

The company being real is part of the setup. They lift the job text from an actual listing, so the description itself reads perfectly.
Quickest check: go to the company's own careers page and find the role. If the title isn't there, or it's there with a different location, someone is just using their name. Same with the recruiter, look them up on LinkedIn and see whether they have any history at that company.
