It's not likely to be an "internal" applicant they have in mind..
Before you can import a foreign person on a H1B visa you must
advertise for local applicants. Every time you see a ridiculously
low pay offer for technical work, just keep that requirement in
mind. When no one suitable applies for the job they're free to get a
visa to import someone.
Anyone who didn't watch that YouTube video of consultants coaching US
employers on how to work the system to get a (H1B) visa to import a
half-price (or less) person from overseas to take your jobs from you
should go and watch it now!
Here's the link, Watch it and weep, or better still get mad and
figure out how to embarrass your congressman!

Move to increase number of foreign worker visas fails in Senate, but
that has ...
And the amazing video: http://www.youtube.com/programmersguild
Once again, I suspect that ad was never intended to draw a serious
qualified applicant.

It sounds a lot like there is a rule requiring a posting for any job
before it can be filled internally. Nobody meeting those requirements
is likely to take the job at that rate so they will be free to give it to
the internal candidate. And he or she will probably get a substantial
raise after 1 week's "probation".
Either that, or that posting came from some other universe.
