This time, it's in the social media space.
Some feeds in LinkedIn are being overrun by a number of spam messages. Often times they come from what appear to be different people, but they all have the same idiotic message, ending with a number to contact through another social media app.
Despite it's claims of not being an MLM, not being a CHAIN BUSINESS, that's exactly what it comes off as.
Yes, it's a spam scam.
The other clear sign of it is this gem:
I am in highly reputed organization and help people make money online..
Yeah, that's a red flag.
Anyways, I contacted LinkedIn to report it as such, as I've seen close to 100 of these overunning a number of their feeds.
I got back this -
A member of our Trust & Safety Team reviewed the post and found it does not go against our Professional Community Policies.We understand this is not the outcome you expected and want to share some additional options that can help ensure a safer experience on LinkedIn.
No. I'll just remove myself from these otherwise once useful feeds because LinkedIn failed to recognize these for the scams that they are. A part of me wonders if that too is part of the scam, to have me constantly muting people, instead of the feed itself.
But then again, I doubt that LinkedIn or any other social media company gives a shit.
Poor customer experience LinkedIn. You should know by know that you should never waste a customers' time.
