About LinkedIn Profile Checker

You invested time to develop your professional network. Do not allow a LinkedIn scammer to undo all that. In the wake of increased remote work, job fake scams are now among the most prevalent risks operating on the social network.

How to Spot a Fake Profile

  • Stolen or Generic Profile Photo: We do a reverse image search to determine if their picture is a generic picture or stolen from somewhere.
  • Bare-Bones Profile: A recruiter from a major company will have a detailed work history, connections, and recommendations. A scammer’s profile is often new and empty.
  • Grammar and Spelling Errors: An email from "Microsfot's" hiring manager is a dead give-away.

Common LinkedIn Scams

  • Fake Job Listings: Con artists list fake job postings for great at-home jobs with unlimited pay. The catch is they want to charge for "training" or "equipment" up front. Or it's something to try to obtain your personal info for identity theft.
  • Phishing Messages: An email from someone claiming to be a contact that has a link to "an interesting article" or to "login to view a document." The link is to a fake login page to capture your LinkedIn password.
  • investment pitches: You begin speaking to someone and then abruptly break into peddling a "once-in-a-lifetime" crypto business or investment.
