This message, originally written by Doris Campagna from Burkesville, KY, highlights concerns about a persistent individual fixated on someone's physical appearance. The writer describes the situation of a person referred to as "BullDog Woman" who obsessively checks on another individual and requests photos, expressing envy and resorting to lies. The aggressive tone and derogatory language used to describe the parties involved may indicate a distressing situation that needs addressing. It's unfortunate to see such behavior, and the writer seems to be seeking resolution to this inappropriate behavior towards the subject referred to as the "Beauty Woman." It's essential for platforms like LinkedIn to ensure users' safety and well-being while addressing such instances of harassment or obsession.

This post from Doris Campagna in Burkesville, KY addresses ongoing issues with BooBoo Boozer's behavior. Doris expresses frustration with BooBoo's jealousy and erratic behavior, as highlighted by a recent update provided by Ripoff Report. Despite the character assessment provided in the post, Doris suggests that BooBoo should focus on improving her own life rather than harassing others. The focus shifts to a positive note about a "beauty Woman" who is starting a new and wonderful life, contrasting with BooBoo's negative actions. The post concludes with a lighthearted comment about BooBoo not being able to interfere with the positive direction in the "beauty Woman's" life. GetHuman[redacted] is seeking guidance on how LinkedIn can address this situation.

The following was written by Doris Campagna from Burkesville, Kentucky: Regarding the issue, Theresa Carpenter admits to posting a significant amount of her SSN to frame Dori and Rich, feeling jealous.

Additionally, Terry Foul Carp confesses to posing as various individuals due to self-hatred. Lastly, there are mentions of twisted stories and false teeth incidents. These posts highlight various personal issues intertwined with threads of jealousy, self-destructive behavior, and family dynamics.

I can no longer access my primary LinkedIn profile. I believe my employer may have deactivated my premium subscription, and I also changed the email associated with my account to my Gmail address instead of my work email. I now have a basic profile under davidhblum@gmail and cannot retrieve access to my original profile that I've had for 20 years. I urgently need assistance to regain access as I am currently job hunting. My name is David Blum, and I work at Alight Solutions as a Large Market Health Solutions Executive.

Hello, I have been unable to access my LinkedIn account for several days now. I attempted to recover my account using the LinkedIn application on my smartphone, but I do not have an authentication app. Subsequently, I tried on my computer and entered the code sent via email, but I was then prompted for an authentication code that I did not receive due to the lack of an authentication app. I even completed the identity verification process by submitting a copy of my national identity card, as instructed, but I have not received any follow-up from LinkedIn via email or any other method. This issue is significantly affecting my work. I would appreciate urgent assistance in resolving this matter. Thank you, J.J. Urbain

AT NO COST TO ME!!! THANK YOU. Please delete my account as soon as possible! I did not create it! In Germany, it is illegal to use someone's information without their consent!

Dear Sir or Madam, I am unsure why my LinkedIn account was restricted. I currently work for Air Chaser, Inc., a US company, although I am based in India and only possess an Indian ID. The system is prompting me to submit a US ID to regain access to my account. Following a request from my company to add my work email address, my account was restricted post-operation. I am seeking guidance on the process to restore my LinkedIn account. Thank you for your assistance. Have a great day! Yours sincerely, G. Kumar

I received a notification that my account activity on LinkedIn violates their User Agreement and Professional Community Policies. Following their terms, I understand that misrepresentation of my identity or posting inaccurate profile information is not allowed. Despite my appeal being declined, my account will remain restricted. I am unsure of the next steps to take regarding this matter.

After transitioning to a new company, I updated my LinkedIn profile with my personal email and phone number. I verified the changes, but now I can't access my account due to the second-step verification going to my old work cell, which I removed. I even submitted my driver's license for verification. Please reach out to me for assistance as I'm unable to contact LinkedIn without logging in. This situation contradicts LinkedIn's emphasis on professional responsibility online. -Dylan Arthur.

Yesterday, when I clicked on a link to read an article on LinkedIn, I was redirected to a secondary security authentication where I had to choose an image. However, after selecting the image, I received a message informing me that my account was suspended and requesting my identification documents for verification. Sadly, even after submitting my driver's license and passport, they were not accepted. I urgently need access to my account restored as soon as possible.

I received a notification that access to my account has been temporarily restricted. Could you please explain the reason for this temporary restriction? I understand the importance of account security and would like to go through the verification process promptly to regain access. I am willing to provide my government-issued ID for identity verification. Once my identity is confirmed, I hope to have the account restriction lifted. I look forward to hearing from a customer support representative to provide more information on the situation. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I recently joined LinkedIn and added around a hundred people from my university the same day. LinkedIn flagged my account, suspecting automated activity. Despite my attempts to reconnect and add more connections manually, my account got temporarily banned for alleged cheating. I only added people I knew, but it happened quickly. I'm hesitant to add more connections now, fearing a permanent ban. Is there a specific daily limit on adding connections to avoid being banned? I feel pressured not to make any mistakes. Although I tried contacting LinkedIn to explain I'm not using any software, I haven't received a response. Any suggestions on how to address this situation would be appreciated.

As a long-time premium member of LinkedIn, I recently updated a couple of business accounts, created 3 ads for job positions (2 of which were paid), and attempted to start a new group. Unfortunately, after initiating the group, my account was unexpectedly suspended, despite never encountering this issue before. I promptly submitted copies of my identification as requested, but I have yet to receive any response from LinkedIn. Consequently, I am currently unable to access my account. I received an email with the subject line "LinkedIn Account Recovery Appeal [Case: [redacted]08]," providing me with some information. However, since I am unable to log in, I am unable to utilize the chat feature for further assistance, and the email address provided by LinkedIn is not monitored for replies.

I am having trouble getting into my LinkedIn account. A few weeks ago, I got a notification saying another email was added to my account and made primary. I don't recognize this email or know who it belongs to. I tried to change it, but it requires verification sent to the primary email. I managed to use a one-time link to log in and send a message seeking help, but now I can't get back in. When I try to use the one-time link, I receive an email in Chinese linked to someone named Maria Irizarry, not me.

A few years ago, my business and my name were copied onto LinkedIn without my permission, creating what I call a ghost account. I work as an independent contractor and didn't pay much attention to LinkedIn until now. This unauthorized account even used my business name in the heading but with one of my client's email domains. I've enlisted a communications company to assist, but they're struggling to resolve the issue due to the account's complexity. LinkedIn insists I already have an account linked to the wrong email address. I've attempted to close the account, sign out, and create a new one, but LinkedIn keeps recognizing the unauthorized account associated with my client's email address and my business. I'd appreciate any advice on how to rectify this situation.

My initial account was restricted for unknown reasons, causing significant inconvenience. Even after providing my identity card, no response was received after a week. Consequently, I had to create a new account with a different email address. Unfortunately, this account was also restricted after setup, without clear justification. I am eager to have my accounts restored promptly. First email: [redacted] Second email: [redacted]
