LMS Reinforcing Steel Group · Victoria, BC · $39.00 to $42.00 hourly (to be negotiated)

applies via www.lmsgroup.ca

Verdict

LMS Reinforcing Steel Group is a legitimate, established company with a real website and careers section, which provides strong legitimacy signals. However, the posting exhibits critical fraud red flags: applicants are instructed to mail physical resumes to a residential house address (764 Roderick St) rather than the company's actual business headquarters in Surrey, BC, and the mailing address requirement combined with a non-software role creates a strong fraud pattern. The location mismatch between the claimed Victoria office and actual Surrey headquarters further undermines trust.

  • web.hasJobsListing-8

    Company has an official careers section on their website (https://www.lmsgroup.ca/careers)

  • websiteReachable-10

    Company website is reachable and functional
