GURJAS ENTERPRISES · Victoria, BC · $36.60 hourly

Verdict

This posting exhibits multiple strong fraud signals despite the employer being a registered BC contractor. The application address is explicitly residential (Saanich property), diverging from the company's registered Duncan office and contradicting the claimed Victoria location. Combined with the requirement to mail physical resumes to a private residence—a hallmark of advance-fee or credential-harvesting scams—and the location mismatch between posting and verified business address, the posting warrants a HIGH fraud risk classification.
