live-in caregiver

Teresa Almond · Victoria, BC · $24.65 hourly

Verdict

This posting presents moderate fraud risk. While the job description is detailed and legitimate (live-in caregiver with specific tasks and reasonable salary), the employer verification reveals significant concerns: "Teresa Almond" is an individual posting through a job board with no independent business presence, and the contact email is from the job board platform rather than a personal business domain. The web verification found no verifiable business entity or office location in Victoria, BC, which is atypical for a live-in caregiver role that should have a residential address.
