They were fake, they were directed towards some other web site. I didn't keep the email so I can't remember where, but they weren't goingto Linkedin. I didn't click on them, I just hovered the mouse over the link to see where it went, so I don't know what would happen if you clicked on one of them. But the email looked legitimate, someone less paranoid than myself could easily have clicked on it. I happen to have an account on Linkedin, but I didn't recognize the name in the email so I was a little suspicious.

Like I said, Linkedin has been the victim of hacker attacks recently. I received a bogus email supposedly from Linkedin, asking me to click on some link in the email. I forwarded it to the admin at Linkedin, and he said it wasn't from Linkedln.
But were the links in the bogus email all going to linkedin.com, or were there any «fake» links ?
