A recent post on the AvoidAClaim blog notes that 3 Ontario lawyers have reported that they were contacted via LinkedIn with a request to provide legal services in relation to enforcement of provisions under separation-type agreement. The fraudsters used the names of a real lawyer and law firm. This serves as a good reminder to watch for the classic red flags, no matter how a potential new client contact is initiated, whether via email or another message service provided through a website such as LinkedIn or Facebook.
