LinkedIn scams are spreading like wildfire

This is so unfortunate, just as everywhere we need to be very cautious. I was confronted by a woman (maybe) claiming to be Jasmine Whitbread saying she had a proposal for me. Unfortunately, this ''woman is running a scam. So LinkedIn is not immune. Here is the scam...............be careful out there.
