Recognize and report spam, inappropriate, and abusive content

Last updated: 2 months ago
At LinkedIn, we don't tolerate inappropriate activities or behavior such as spam, harassment, scams, and misinformation. Our Professional Community Policies outline acceptable and unacceptable activities and provide you guidance for reporting spam, inappropriate, or abusive content.
Learn more about identifying phishing, scams, spam and malware and how to report spam in groups.
When you report another member's content, they won't be notified who reported them, and you should no longer see the content or conversation that you reported in your feed or messaging inbox. We may review the reported content or conversation to take additional measures like warning or suspending the author if the content is in violation of our Terms of Service. In some cases, you’ll receive more information on the outcome via email. Manage the updates you receive about your reported content from your Settings.
