People With Whom I have No LinkedIn Contacts in Common, But Who LinkedIn Thinks I Should Know



Please note, I have not uploaded any contact list, and my account is from a work account that I never used when online dating:
  • my friend L. – who I met while writing my graduate thesis
  • J – friend from college who i helped write a fundraising letter for
  • C - a sorority sister of my actual sister
  • my freaking optometrist
  • my friend J in LA
  • Jeff O. the first person i ever went out on an OkCupid date with, who i went on exactly one date with and never talked to again
  • my friend S from college, who I have never emailed from work
  • a professor who i recently wrote a report on, but whom i have never emailed
  • my colleague Bob's wife (I am not connected with Bob on LinkedIn)
  • one of my favorite professors from college (nice to know he's moved to Barbados)
  • my friend’s sister-in-law
  • my former upstairs neighbor (the one with the baby),
  • my sister’s friend Jess, who i don't think i have ever emailed ever from any account,
  • my old boss’ friend Roxanne
  • and someone else with my name

Google LinkedIn hacking law suit, just for fun.  Or check out the LinkedIn message board of people asking how it accessed their contacts without permission...
