We should also try to be aware of fake recruiters.

Nah, but probably on the same wavelength.

I always confuse the two. Could be twins indeed.

I'm quite paranoid with LinkedIn, deliberately put wrong info on companies I work for, but skills are accurate,

That way if i apply, my CV does the talking not LinkedIn profile.

Don't really think it's wise to have all your info in one place....

Rather leave your profile blank than put bs on it. That being said I find people with blank/no LinkedIn or that don't have a Facebook account very suspicious.

I got a job recently (started Wednesday) through LinkedIn Jobs. No connection to the company just that I applied, they looked at my profile and invited me for an interview. 5 stages later I got an offer. Now while I did really want to leave my previous company (I was really having life) this job I got now is pretty much a dream job for me. I thought long and hard about reasons for not liking the last one and that's what I had the most marketable experience in so to kinda abandon that career path and start a new one was quite a bit step.

I've met eg and I've seen Thor's pic on a freelance site. By looks alone they are polar opposites: scrawny guy vs meat head
