Is there someone who you feel is stalking you
on your LinkedIn platform?
Often when I am speaking with groups about
marketing online, I meet individuals who are concerned about being stalked by
old boyfriends or x-spouses or old bosses. When this is happening to you, there
are some very simple steps to take that will eliminate the challenge
immediately.
Here is what to do.
Linkedin has made this very simple with their
new platform.
1. Go to the person's profile that you wish
to remove.
2. Click on the tiny arrow beside the blue
'send message' tab in the top part of their profile page.
3. A drop-down menu will appear.
4. Scroll down to the bottom of that menu
list to 'Remove Connection' .
5. You can also choose 'Block or Report'
which will also remove the connection.
6. Click the response you wish to use and you
will not be bothered any longer by this person.
Now this works great for people that you are
connected to. However, if you are not connected to them, and the perpetrator is
following you without making the connection, you may not be able to use this
simple method that I just mentioned.
When people are not connected to you, here is
what to do.
1. Go to your setting menu located under the
tiny icon of your headshot in the top right side of your profile page.
2. Scroll down to 'Privacy and Settings' in
the drop-down menu.
3. In the first profile tab, scroll down to
'Manage people you are blocking'.
4. There is a list of frequently asked
questions that will help you solve your challenge.
If you need more help, feel free to contact
me and I will help point you in the right direction.
If you are new to this platform, or any
online platforms, remember that you can always 'Block and Report' people.
