A new phishing campaign has
been spotted hitting LinkedIn users via direct messages, feeds and the LinkedIn
InMail feature. When you click a link, it takes you to a spam website instead
of the destination link. On feeds, LinkedIn gives you an idea of the destination
domain. This spam hijacks that link. LinkedIn shortens links with its
internal URL shortener. This spam attacks the shortener, inserting itself in a
compromised account. The easiest way to fix this problem is to change your
account password. Make sure you indicate that all devices must use the new
password. You better do the change immediately.
