live-in caregiver - seniors
Private Household (EA) · Victoria, BC · $24.65 hourly
Verdict
This posting exhibits multiple critical fraud indicators. The employer "Private Household (EA)" is a generic industry classification, not a real company, and no legitimate business website exists. The contact email (evangelosa@novicesjobs.com) routes to a job board platform rather than the actual employer, making it impossible for applicants to verify who they're actually working for. For a sensitive live-in caregiver role involving vulnerable seniors, the inability to identify the real employer is a severe red flag. Combined with the business name mismatch and lack of verifiable employer identity, this posting presents high fraud risk.
