I flagged these two. Anyone else getting random connections?

I had these two connections added without me asking or seeing a notification.

I find these two members interesting they have no info and are in the top 1% of their groups.

I don't bother with Info either. If you look at what is happening on LinkedIn, hackers are siphoning profile information. It would not surprise me to find that it is also happening here.

I wish I could find more people I know on here. I'd just block the unknowns.

TSgt Private RallyPoint Member, make your profile more restrictive. That's what I've done.

I have heard of this but not had it happen to me personally.
If true, it needs to be fixed.

This is a good question. How secure are our lines here on RP? Theres a lot of information about all of us here on RP.

I've had four or five force me into a connection. Blocked all of them immediately. I sent a message to Mr. Merino asking him about it but haven't heard back yet. In the mean time I think it's safe to say that we may all want to double heck who can view our full profiles and what not. Hopefully it stops soon.
