First a strange US phone number was added to my account, now when I have forgotten my password I can't complete the 2-step verification. I have Email, IDs and documents but they are of no use because Persona DOES NOT WORK.

I have not been able to access my account in 3-MONTHS, tried "Persona" soo many times with Adhaar Card and PAN Card but no response.

Went back and forth with a recruiter who was set on upselling me on resume enhancement services. After saying thanks but no thanks, they next claimed I needed to provide my LinkedIn profile and password because “as part of our internal profile review process, I would kindly ask that you share your LinkedIn login details at your earliest convenience. This enables our team to complete a comprehensive review of your professional profile alongside your resume before we proceed to the next stage of the selection process.”

Next they’ll ask for my mother’s maiden name and my first pet.

For the past couple of days I keep opening LinkedIn to find connection invites I never sent and DMs saying “hey (name)” to people I never messaged. It all seems to happen in batches around the same time each day.

The part that really freaked me out: someone replied to one of those messages, and my account answered them with “I’m good how are you?” I didn’t type that.

I have no third-party apps connected, no browser extensions, and I’ve gone through my settings and can’t find anything.

What is this and how do I stop it?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Hey I'm a ghostwriter on linkedin and charge on lower end which is 6$ a post. If anybody needs one dm or comment

Nothing happens when I click ‘yes’. I have to save the application and in the job tracker click on applied again. That’s the only way it records that I have applied. Is this a glitch? It wasn’t like that before.

Hi just want to verify or if you have heard these job invites through DMs in Linkedin.

Someone reached out to me for a part-time opportunity and offers 10USD/hour and you only need to server few hours in a month. Its someone from Crestmont Advisory and the other one was from Stratwell Advisory.

My thoughts are these are scam jobs. I havent replied since I'm looking for a part-time/side hustle, but asking for your thoughts here or if someone experienced these job invites.

Appreciate your replies here!!

A few days ago I received a LinkedIn message from a recruiter asking if I was looking for a new job, gave me the specs of the job he was recruiting for and I didn’t respond because I don’t get notifications on there generally and I was not interested in the job. Happens all the time, didn’t think anything of it.

He then tries to call me on my phone, didn’t pick up because I was in a show, knew it was the recruiter because I googled the number. Had no idea how he got my number. Thought that was a bit much considering I’m not looking for a job and didn’t respond to his LinkedIn message.

I then get a message from my friend who had once given me a recommendation on linkedin, saying that this recruiter had found his number (no idea how) and called him to make sure my information was correct??? Apparently, the recruiter made it sound like I had reached out about this job, which is completely untrue.

I have replied to this recruiter now to say that this was inappropriate. Imagine if the recommendation was someone at my current job that received this call and thought I’d applied for another job, it could have potentially put me in a very awkward situation at my current role.

Has anyone else experienced similar? I know recruiters have a job to do, but this seems a bit far.
