Good Evening. This should probably have gone straight to admin, but I can't hang around tonight to deal with this in the backchannel. I read a story on Slashdot regarding Linked Spam, then checked my gmail only to find a spoofed LinkedIn request from a member of the Oracle-L to share photos. I'd say to simply ignore all LinkedIn requests for a few days. They'll still be queued up in your real profile after this one subsides. hth.
