manager, sales and marketing

Dr Osamah Alenezi · Vancouver, BC · $85,000 annually

Verdict

This posting exhibits strong fraud signals despite the employer being a real, established organization. The critical red flag is the severe role-employer mismatch: Dr. Osamah Alenezi's Vancouver Virology Centre is a medical clinic specializing in infectious diseases, yet the posting advertises a "manager, sales and marketing" role with fundraising and business analysis responsibilities—functions entirely inconsistent with a healthcare clinic's operations. Combined with the use of a generic Gmail address (information.vvc@gmail.com) for applications rather than the organization's official domain, this strongly suggests the posting is fraudulent, likely exploiting the real organization's name and reputation to deceive applicants.

    "summary": "Dr. Osamah Alenezi is a real, established physician in Vancouver who founded the Vancouver Virology Centre Society (a non-profit clinic) in 2014. The organization has an official website (vvcsociety.ca) and is located at 1160 Burrard St, Unit 302, Vancouver, BC V6Z 2E8—matching the claimed location. However, the job posting for a \"manager, sales and marketing\" role is highly suspicious: Dr. Alenezi's organization is a medical clinic specializing in infectious diseases, not a business requiring marketing managers. The posting provides no mailing address, and the role description (marketing, fundraising, business analysis) seems misaligned with a healthcare clinic's actual operations. This appears to be a potential scam using a real person's name."
