personal support worker - home support
Mary Joan Fetterly · Vancouver, BC · $25.00 hourly
Verdict
This posting exhibits multiple strong fraud signals. The employer "Mary Joan Fetterly" operates as a yoga teacher and mindfulness coach, not a home support service—a clear business mismatch. The contact email uses a generic Gmail domain rather than a business address, and the posting provides no physical mailing address for applications. The detailed job description, while well-structured, appears to be templated boilerplate that conflicts sharply with the employer's actual business profile.
- web.businessMatch = mismatch+25
Employer operates as yoga teacher/mindfulness coach/author; posting is for home support worker service. No home care business found on website or Trinity Yoga site.
- generic_email_domain+20
Contact email joan03132023@gmail.com is a free Gmail account, not a business domain. Combined with business mismatch, this strengthens fraud signal.

- web.applicationAddressType = none+0

Her website (mary-jo.com) and Trinity Yoga site show no home care business. The posting lists no mailing address. This appears to be either a misuse of her name or a fraudulent posting."
