LinkedIn: A Cesspool of Scammers and Identity Theft

LinkedIn is a cesspool of scammers and identity theft

Users express deep frustration with LinkedIn, describing it as a haven for scammers and identity theft that Microsoft shows no interest in fixing. Many commenters wish the platform would collapse to make room for something useful, noting that its history of privacy violations and spam makes it comparable to Facebook. Some maintain their accounts only to prevent others from squatting on their professional identities.

"I look at people who're still on LinkedIn the same way as people who're still on Facebook. They don't have my sympathies."
