Re: Have you received any invitation today?...


Hi Vlad,

Great work - maybe. Are you absolutely sure there is no one behind
these profiles?

They are reminiscient of the NU tricksters.

If you are confident they are not real you should tell LinkedIn - if
they concur they will be removed.

I would hapily remove them from my contacts and the LIONs if it can be
shown they're unreal.

Cheers John

> Well, I for one I did, and each time two identical invitations came at
once. I won't accept them and I urge you to do the same (or drop the
connexion if you've already had accepted them) (incidentally, each
profile had already more than 500 direct connexions). My issues with
these is that there was no other information besides what I've posted
here, no public profile (obviously want to stay under the radar of
public search engines) and for the two email domains other than Yahoo
and Hotmail: cybergal.com and physicist.net they're just a couple of
landing pages full of spammy link. I don't know why all of the sudden
this new campaign of harvesting LinkedIn contacts (I wonder what these
spammers do with them) but unfortunately it's not the first one and
won't be the last one either. So, again, beware!

NU I don't think so. Since the group has been banned from LinkedIn I never heard of them or from Victoria Blinster, the group creator. TopLinked I think it's...
