I just had my fill of LinkedIn. Maybe it helps some folks, but not me. The article indicates they create profiles without people's permission or solicitation. My recent experience is, they do the same with duplicate profiles. I already had a profile, and they created a duplicate somehow without my consent. Someone shot me in invite using one of those unknown duplicate profiles. That invite appeared in my email. I clicked the link, and it took me to a page with an error message indicating that my email was not associated with the account. I am not able to find my duplicate profiles so I can delete them. They probably don't even have my first or last name on them. On the page where the error is displayed, they also have an option for me to send them my email password so they can rummage through my email account. Lovely. CS is no help. They just tell me what I already know from the FAQ's; i.e., I may have duplicates. I tell them I have no duplicates, but they don't address the real problem, which is I shouldn't be getting these invites that don't work.
