You’ve probably gotten those emails suggesting that “some Minister died and they need to give money to you.”
It’s the typical Nigerian “419” scam, named after the Nigerian Penal code number.
Well, those emails are coming to your LinkedIn Inbox, and soon!
The worst part, is they are much harder to spot, as the scammers are imitating Real, Senior Bank Executives.
Here’s what the guys at HotforSecurity.com reported when they found this strange email in their LinkedIn Inbox.
Be careful out there, and remember to mark those profiles as Spam as well as the emails. I don’t know if anyone at LinkedIn is looking at these, but if the trend continues, at least there will be a log of profiles and emails.
