When you click a link that takes you away from LinkedIn, you’ll see a warning message which tells you that the next page you see, if you proceed, is not part of LinkedIn. The full URL will also be displayed to help you evaluate the credibility of the external site.

The message is a reminder for our members to be mindful of protecting themselves by not sharing personal information with unknown sources. For instance, some sites are made to resemble LinkedIn in order to capture your username or password. Other unsafe sites may attempt to install spyware on your device.
