      Hi,

      I really don’t understand those people who hack other accounts on social media. Why would someone hack a LinkedIn account? What is their motivation? Are they sick? I never understand this.

      Hi Pekkarinen98, You might be wondering why someone may want to hack your account. Well, there are lots of hideously sinister reasons why, but it is to get access to your personal data. Personal data and financial data have value on the black market. Whatever the reason, getting hacked can be incredibly damaging to your LinkedIn world. Don’t forget that you might get hacked by a person who is rather close to you such as your classmate, colleague or even one of your friends. So, try to be careful with your information.
