Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed a surge in scammer activity on LinkedIn lately? 🤔 I've observed some concerning trends: 1. An influx of fake profiles with recently changed names trying to connect. 2. "Ice breakers" claiming they liked my profile or have a professional opportunity to discuss. 3. Some even engaging in technical discussions, asking to clone GitHub repos that turned out to contain trojans! 😱 LinkedIn used to feel safe and professional, but it seems to be losing that edge day by day. I can't help but wonder: - Has LinkedIn relaxed its registration process to boost user numbers? - Are they facing user growth saturation, leading to less stringent verification? I'm curious if others are experiencing similar issues. If you are, please share your experiences in the comments. Also, if you know someone working at LinkedIn, please tag them. It's crucial that the LinkedIn team is aware of these security concerns and takes action to maintain the platform's integrity. #LinkedInSecurity #ProfessionalNetworking #CyberSecurity #ScamAlert What are your thoughts?
