I received a message with Subject line "HI Dude " from a recently added unknown connection.
"Hey, Anu awesome picture. I have been following you for some time. Are you an HR? Buddy, please visit my profile & suggest job opportunities. Share your email ID as well"
Message sender must be in her late 20s, who looked pretty attractive in her office attire. I looked at the message in awe for 5 minutes, spent the next 5 minutes on her profile, obviously after turning my laptop, making sure my wife does not see it.
Her choice of words was pushing me to reply immediately. I thought all the crap, especially revealing or not that I recently got married.
I finally replied this,
"Hey, thanks for great words of appreciation. You work in completely different industry & unfortunately, I am almost "Unemployed" so practically would not be able to help you currently, still my email is anupamism@gmail.com. Let's get connected over the phone, what is your phone number?
She replied back with an alone "OK" within seconds.
An hour later I messaged her reminding to giver her phone number.
"I don't give my number to strangers" was the last reply before she blocked me.
Interestingly, my phone was with my wife & Linkedin account is configured in it.
