“Avoid they have serious security breaches”

Wayne D.
10/5/24

I've been a LinkedIn user for quite some time and have spent years building my connections. Recently, my account was hacked, and when I reached out to LinkedIn for help, they responded by sending a password reset link. Unfortunately, this reset link was sent directly to the hacker. I then received several emails, one notifying me that my password had been reset, followed by another saying that my two-step verification had been changed, and finally, one stating that my name had been altered. LinkedIn, owned by Microsoft, essentially handed my account over to the hacker. If you are a business or someone seeking work, I would caution against using LinkedIn, as their support is extremely poor, and it seems easier for hackers to gain access to accounts than for legitimate users to recover them.

This is a serous warning about LinkedIn.com.

We where paying $500+ dollars a month to have our Companies Staff on LinkedIn, and to use LinkedIn as a Professional Networking to other Aerospace and Spacescience people globally. We had 32 paid staff accounts on LinkedIn.

LinkedIn is owned and controlled by Richard Branson and Virgin Galactic, and these people are using linkedIn as there own personal spy agency and data base to track and harass anyone they see as a competitor or threat in the Aerospace Industry. In March/April 2013 LinkedIn changed its old privacy policy, so that now they OWN your listing, and you have no rights as a user on LinkedIn.

LinkedIn owners are now using people as their own personal cash cows and network of information on people. If you try to actually use LinkedIn to contact and network with Aerospace or Technology people and professionals, the LinkedIn agents hiding as regular accounts, will falsely accuse you of any sort of so called offenses, and then block your account, even if you are paying $500 a month or more, and will not give your money back.

LinkedIn is a high level big money scam, to control and manipulate information on people for nefarious and unprofessional agendas.

Anyone getting sucked into the LinkedIn scam will get burned. And if your dumb enough to get a paid LinkedIn account, linkedin will not provide the services they say they will provide, and in effect are committing felony theft of services and false advertising to deceive and defraud the public.

The Department of Commerce and FBI have received formal complaints in this regards, and spy and theft of service scams like this LinkedIn need to be shut down, and the public protected from these parasite blood suckers!

I am a Knight of Justice of the Sovereign Order of St. John. My grandparents and parents have been stationed as US diplomats in the former British sector of West Germany. I have a diplomatic passport myself. I currently live in London and I am a member of the British Conservative party.

My family's diplomatic identity is from a time during the Cold War when US American diplomats needed extra protection for their work, as West Germany was a conflict region. We received second identities to live a relatively normal civilian life. I can not change the name on my German passport as it is a diplomatic one. I filled a legal deed poll change of name in the UK to change all the details of my other documents. (I currently have no US documents available)

I built up my professional profile on Linkedin under my original birth name, for which I even have more than enough evidence and documentation, as an accountant, for which I have a degree including several fields of studies. I added my personal work, even included diplomatic letters. It started when I wanted to connect with members of an Israeli organisation, with members of the Knights of St, John as well as members of the Conservative party of the United Kingdom.

I can not think of anything more normal than wanting to connect with members of the same organisation than you are on a professional platform.

My account got restricted during the process of connecting. It still is restricted. Do you know how this looks when your Linkedin account gets restricted during the time of connecting with fellow party or organisational members? They will think that you are a fake and a liar.

Alone this damage has Linkedin already done to me, a Knight, Diplomat, member of the British Conservative party and other. This can easily be interpreted as character assassination.

I start seriously to believe that Linkedin is a job terror network and the reason why so many migrants receive positions within our economy. When analysing that Linkedin is a subsidiary of Microsoft and Microsoft having currently migrant CEO's is this not a wonder.

But it gets really a little too obvious when diplomats, Knights, members of the Conservative party and Israel lover have their account restricted during the time when wanting to connect to other members.

I have then searched for negative reviews and found that the majority of at least 80 % of reviews everywhere are extremely negative of Linkedin. While stating that their overall score is 4 out of 5 stary. This gives me reason to believe that Linkedin is a massive fake operation by corrupt and subverted government positions, artificially creating positive overall scores, lying with the numbers of the actual users as well as lying about the job opportunities.
