He messaged that he was looking to hire someone with my background! When I responded, he further showed his interests to have a conversation with me and gave me a brief description about his company. And requested for my phone number.

I was not as stupid as he expected to give my number!

I searched for his background in linkedin. To my surprise, it was a blank page with just a profile name and not any activities . Nothing more. Likewise the company he referred too didn’t have any professional appearance on linkedin and I couldn’t trace that company from google too. I felt some anomalies at this stage. So I just asked him to pass me the webpage link. As expected no further responses! He disappeared.
