I matched with someone online last week on Bumble. I don’t use my name on my profile but only my initials. We had a few pleasant messages and he asked my name and I told him my first name only. I then receive a LinkedIn request, which weirded me out. I don’t message him for a day and then he messaged to ask if I started to ignore him. I said no, busy with family. I then messaged him a few days later to say I was uncomfortable he sent me a LinkedIn request based on so little info. Anyway, he’s just messaged me at work saying “thanks for the low behavior wish you the same”. It’s from his work email. I know there isn’t anything I can do except be vigilant and not give out my name in future, but just wanted to share my experience.
