Today I told some of my friends about the incident, and we set up a bait to collect solid proof.

I asked a few of my friends to send him connection requests from their accounts. As expected, he accepted only the ones from female profiles. The moment he accepted, he’d start with a “welcome” message, then ask about personal and professional details, and soon after drop the line: “I’m working at this company as an Assistant Manager, I’ll help you get a job, the salary will be huge, the interview will be tough, but I’ll get you in — if you do me this favour.”

Every single time — same creepy pattern.

If the girl plays dumb, he keeps pushing: “I don’t want money… you know what I mean.” If they refuse or get suspicious, he deletes all the messages and blocks them.

Now we’ve got all the proof—screenshots, multiple chat logs, all showing a repeatable disgusting pattern. People asked for evidence—we have it. Let’s catch this creepy pig before he harms anyone else.

Here’s what’s really alarming: his LinkedIn profile looks totally clean and professional. A detailed “About” section. Work experience at Verticurl, AstraZeneca, Accenture, eClerx, certifications from Oracle and TUM, a complete education history, and 9,000+ followers.

A fake, polished profile built just to target and harass women.

Getting that many followers on LinkedIn isn’t easy—how long has this creep been doing this? Is this just a fake account? Or is he a real 40-something man who’s been doing this for years—possibly already manipulating or hurting others, and still on the hunt?

And here’s where LinkedIn’s failure makes it worse. You can put anything on your profile—job, company, certification, even claim you worked at NASA or took a “Generative Alien Course on Mars”—no questions asked. No verification. No background checks.

LinkedIn holds more personal information than most platforms: Your career, education, location, contacts—and still, they leave this crap unchecked.

Over 20 of my friends reported his profile today, and many Redditors did the same yesterday. No action. His profile is still active.

So here’s what I’m asking: What do we do next? Do we expose this guy publicly on LinkedIn? Is there a better platform or legal process to escalate this? What’s the correct way to file a cyber complaint in India?

Even 8 of my own followers are mutuals with him, all of them women—just shows how far this has gone.

I even started a Twitter thread, tagging @Cyberdost and @LinkedIn, but no response from either of them. If you’ve dealt with anything like this or know who to contact—drop your suggestions. Let’s stop this predator before someone else becomes his next target.

Massive respect to all the brave women who helped me gather the proof we needed by confronting this creep. Thanks to you, we now have the evidence. Screenshots are pinned in the top comment.
