    Are you *sure* it is you? I know there are several people online with my "real name", maiden and married. If they are posing as you, and you did not create the account, contact linkedin and explain the situation, tell them it is a fake profile impersonating you, and they should not give you a problem about removing it.

    It just has his name and then under it "Canada."
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.

    Thank You for that Pat.
    I am just confused as to why my real name was used as I never use it on the computer.

    I hope that LinkedIn can remove it for you, Gary. I have had, and with my name likely will continue to have, similar trouble on social networking. It's primarily an annoyance but also slightly unnerving.

    Because you are on someone's mailing list somewhere that go input into a computer! Yes, even snail mail lists tend to be stored on computers, and can get hacked!

    Or someone else in Canada also shares his name... it happens more often than you'd think.

    Although it's so... funny?... how our private/personal information is never private.

    Gary, do not worry about this even a little bit! The most that could happen with this is you might get a few extra emails, but you said it is not connected to your email address, so that cannot happen. No one can track you down, access your bank info or anything, okay? At most strange people will try to connect with that account of Linked In, but as the email is not yours, you will not even see them!

    Linked In is useful for people who need it, otherwise annoying!

    I know a lady whose son works there, and when she told me that, she very quickly said, "He is the chef, he has nothing to do with any of the computer stuff or annoying emails!"
