| Fraudulent email | marcusbenjamin441@gmail.com |
| Scam contents | I received this email a few days ago: Shalom (my name), I know reaching out on LinkedIn can be a bit like shooting a message into the void, but I figured it's worth a shot. I hope you don't mind my unorthodox approach, I promise I'm not trying to be inappropriate, unsettling, and confusing. But, you caught my attention and I couldn't resist. I hope you see this as a compliment and not just mere flattery. I know it might sound a bit forward, but as the wise man once said, "the most precious things in life are on the opposite of fear" And let's be real, the most precious things in life are often found in the least expected places. So, if you're single and open to building an excellent rapport, I'm all in. Who knows what's on the other side? Maybe it's a friendship, or maybe it's something more. I eagerly anticipate your positive response. Warm regards, Ben |
| Comment / Review | Received a follow up email today: Hi (my name), Hope this finds you in good health. Just sending seasons greetings and checking if you received the note I sent earlier. Did you have a chance to read it? If not, check your Junk/Spam folder. No need to respond if unable. I'm not a stalker, promise! Regards, Ben

The weird thing is he says he's using LinkedIn but the message doesn't come up in LinkedIn, only Gmail. My Gmail address is not visible on LinkedIn!
There is also a very similar email reported on the scam website, using a slightly different email address.

Hi ******* *******,
Hope you're doing well. Just wanted to wish you a happy season and follow up on the note I sent you. Did you receive it? If not, please check your Junk/Spam folder. No worries if you can't respond, I'm not a stalker and neither will I write to you again.
Be well,
Ben

My personal email address is not on Linkedin so I am not sure how he got my email address. And he does not contact me on Linkedin like someone else would try to do. This is very odd and weird.
