Fake Job Posts on LinkedIn.

Always be alert, suspicious and verify before even clicking.

There's been several posts in the media, articles and blogs by people describing how LinkedIn is being used to recruit, deceive, or scam job seekers.

I am receiving emails with job offers with "High experience match", "High skills match", or "Be first to apply" LinkedIn [pretend] labels.

I checked "Fudan University" in Hafnarfjörður (On-site) under the Icelandic Yellow Pages, nothing found:
"Engar niðurstöður fundust fyrir „fudan university“
Ástæðan gæti verið að leitarorðið er rangt skrifað eða ekki á skrá."
Google Translate:
"No results found for "fudan university"
The reason could be that the keyword is misspelled or not in the file."
https://ja.is/?q=fudan%20university

Alright, maybe not in file. So I checked Revenue Iceland. If it's on-site and it is a university it surely has to be registered; well, no surprise there, nothing found.
"Leit eftir „Fudan University“ skilaði engri niðurstöðu"
Google Translate: A search for "Fudan University" returned no results

I repeated the exercise for MindPal Kópavogur (On-site).
Similar results, nothing under ja.is or the tax office.
