So far I have only seen endorsements from people I actually know & have actually worked with.
However, I have received multiples from a few people which has me wondering what is up with that?
I have not used my contact list with LI either.
However with respect to Inge on this forum I had received an invite twice now from him supposedly from LI, however it was to my work email and not the email I have set up with LI.
So I did not respond to those and sent him an invite myself directly from LI with a note that if it had not been him that really sent invite just discard this one. So if Inge did not originally send an invite then I would also agree either someone imported addresses or something else is going on.

What I have noticed is many people "endorsing" me for skills.
Why would anyone bother to do that?
Do they get something out of it?
How do they know what I am truly skilled at, anyway?
(I haven't worked with any of these people) Has anyone else noticed this?
