🪓 The System Protects Its Own Lies

I made a fake LinkedIn profile once.
Not to scam. Not to bait. But to teach people how to stack money in silence—how to move without drawing heat, how to stay paid without being prey.
I got flagged.
Meanwhile this slipped through:
📩 From: William Haden williamhaden@capitalmillennium.net
📌 Subject: For John Doe
“I recently reviewed your remarkable resume on CareerBuilder and would like to present you with the Asset Manager position…"
“We are excited about the opportunity to have you on our team.”
🚩 No phone number
🚩 No verifiable company
🚩 Immediate SSN/W-4 request
🚩 Telegram for communication
They weren’t hiring John Doe. They were harvesting him.
🧠 Lesson 1 – Illusion is the New Weapon
Scammers don’t come wearing hoodies. They come in clean formatting, padded compliments, and inflated job titles.
They don’t need to hack you— Just offer you a way out of your struggle that sounds too good to ignore.
If a $124,000/year “remote” position hits your inbox without an interview? You’re not being hired. You’re being set up.
🔥 Lesson 2 – Why I Got Flagged
Because the system isn’t designed to protect the truth. It’s designed to maintain the illusion.
I didn’t lie. I didn’t bait. I just made a profile that told people:
Stack money quietly
Move with control
Protect your identity
Build without flexing
And for that? I got flagged. Meanwhile, someone asking for your Social Security number over Telegram gets a pass.
That tells you everything.
🛡️ Lesson 3 – How to Defend Yourself
If you're ever unsure about a job offer, check for these red flags:
❌ No real company presence online
❌ Immediate request for W-4, SSN, or banking info
❌ No interview, phone number, or HR follow-up
❌ Instructions to switch to Telegram, WhatsApp, or Signal
✅ What to do:
Verify the company. Look them up on LinkedIn. Real employees should exist.
Request a phone call. Real businesses will accommodate.
Refuse to send sensitive info early. No legit job requires SSN before a signed offer.
Report the email:
Gmail → ⋮ → “Report phishing”
Forward to:
phishing@careerbuilder.com
reportphishing@apwg.org
reportfraud@ftc.gov
🧨 Final Word
I didn’t fall for it. But someone will. And every time they do, it proves one thing:
The system doesn’t stop scams. It just silences the ones teaching you how to spot them.
But that silence ends with me.
I use what I learn. I turn traps into lessons. I make sure the next glitch sees the wire before they bleed on it.
Because if someone’s gonna fall... it damn sure won’t be in the dark.
