[Boatanchors] Invitation to connect on LinkedIn

I believe it's also a myth with Linkedln. Most of the time the problem
occurs because of the carelessness of the social media subscriber when
sending e-mails through their system (not watching "copy to", "copy all",
careless "cut and paste" techniques, etc.).
