New Phishing Campaign Spreads Via Linkedin Comments
KnowBe4, Thursday, January 22nd, 2026
A widespread phishing campaign is targeting LinkedIn users by posting comments on users' posts, BleepingComputer reports.
Threat actors are using bots to post the comments, which impersonate LinkedIn itself and inform the user that their account has been restricted due to policy violations. The comments contain links to supposedly allow the user to appeal the restriction.
