I no longer do indepth security inspections. Now this is more of a hobby I do in my spare time.

You get an email titled "LinkedIn Reminders"

You have a LinkedIN Account so you believe it.

You click the link ... OH NO!

Yeah .. don't do that.

When ever you get ANY notices in email ALWAYS go to the webpage through your favorites or typing it in (make sure you type it correctly and take your time .. don't rush) because as I am about to show you in the few emails below ... the links in the email do NOT take you to where you want to go:

Links go to hxxp://trenerzytell.pilicka.pl/ascertained.html

which is a rated UNSAFE site according to WOT:

The only way to protect yourself is to arm yourself with knowledge. When you relax and expect others to protect you, they usually drop the ball. So this is why I do what I do.

Got many exactly like this but with a different link each time but some links could even INFECT your computer (as you can read in these WOT ratings them saying):

hxxp://dejuliusandcompany.com/marital.html (WOT rating: www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/dejuliusandcompany.com)

hxxp://holzdirekt.com/effective.html (WOT rating: www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/holzdirekt.com)

hxxp://forologisticonavarra.org/towel.html

and some are not even rated bad in WOT but could be good domains with hacked back pages

hxxp://sneh.perso.sfr.fr/mitchell.html

hxxp://www.fabiodentico.it/educator.html (WOT Rating: www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/fabiodentico.it)

hxxp://pennyhero.com/coroutines.html
