senior accountant
Dynamic Reforestation Ltd · Vancouver, BC · $42.00 hourly
Verdict
Dynamic Reforestation is a legitimate, established company, but this posting exhibits multiple strong fraud indicators. The mailing address is a virtual office (shared commercial building) rather than the company's actual headquarters in Williams Lake, BC—a classic misdirection tactic. Combined with the requirement to mail physical resumes for a senior accounting role and the location mismatch between claimed (Vancouver) and actual (Williams Lake) headquarters, this posting presents high fraud risk despite the employer's legitimacy.
