Finn's Seafood Chops Cocktails · Victoria, BC · $21.18 to $22.18 hourly (to be negotiated)

Verdict

This posting shows strong legitimacy signals: the employer (Finn's Seafood Chops Cocktails) is a real, established Victoria restaurant with a reachable website that matches the posting location and business name. The job details are concrete and plausible for a full-service restaurant. However, the contact email uses a free consumer domain (gmx.ca) rather than the employer's own domain, which is a moderate fraud indicator for a legitimate business that has a professional website. Overall, the posting leans legitimate but warrants a modest fraud score due to the email domain mismatch.
