MI5 warns of foreign agents using LinkedIn to steal information

A campaign has been launched by the Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure (CPNI) called Think Before You Link, which warns that foreign agents are targeting officials with access to sensitive information. The project shares concerns that once a request has been accepted, the victim s colleagues will be more likely to accept a follow-up request as it looks like they share a mutual acquaintance.  Nearly all government departments and some key industries are thought to have been targeted by fake LinkedIn accounts. A large number of those approached might have engaged with the profiles that contacted them, which may have offered speaking or business and travel opportunities as ways to extract confidential information.
