How you can identify Linkedin attacks ? Well, check out the text, as it is trying to push you to pull the repo, it is urgent and so on, here is a sample :
" Our CTO just reviewed your profile and he is very interested in your experience and we are gonna move to next step of interview.

We are planning to update current MVP v1 to v2 (currently, our v1 project does not have any smart contracts)

As you know, most of people on Linkedin have good reviews and experiences so we think skill test is simple and efficient way for prove developer's experience.

So our CTO prepared simple and basic test process for it.
It will takes 10 ~ 15mins for finish it.

--- Here is a uploaded test project -
When you open the project, you can see "Buy 1 NFT to gain access" button in the first page
In other side, you can see balanceOf method in the following contract:

Here, you should get a response that comes out when pass the following address in this read function:
Wallet address: 0x248Dd3836E2A8B56279C04addC2D11F3c2497836
After getting response, exchange the title of "Buy 1 NFT to gain access" button with it ---

Our CTO has very tight schedule so we want you to do this coding challenge asap and let us know.
Then we will schedule a quick call with our CTO "
